The Toronto Raptors pay a visit to the Sacramento Kings at the Golden 1 Center on Wednesday night.

Toronto Raptors

The Toronto Raptors have been in a major slump as they’ve lost six of their first eight games and they will be hoping to bounce back after falling just short to the Nuggets in a 121-119 road defeat on Monday. Gradey Dick led the team with 26 points, five assists, three steals and two blocks, Jakob Poeltl added 24 points with 11 rebounds and three assists while RJ Barrett and Ochai Agbaji each scored 16 points. As a team, the Raptors shot 45 percent from the field and 13 of 39 from the 3-point line as they set the tone with 37 points in the first quarter and played great defense to lead by 11 points in the third quarter, before the Nuggets closed the final 5:32 on a 23-10 run to snatch the game from them at the death.

Sacramento Kings

Meanwhile, the Sacramento Kings have been in pretty good shape as they’ve reeled off four wins from their last five games and they will be eager to keep it going after sneaking past the Heat in a 111-110 road win on Monday. De’Aaron Fox led the team with 28 points, six rebounds and five assists, DeMar DeRozan added 26 points with six assists while Domantas Sabonis tallied 16 points with 16 rebounds and seven assists. As a team, the Kings shot 51 percent from the field and 10 of 27 from the 3-point line as they struggled in the first half and trailed by 15 points, before they turned the tide with a 37-17 third quarter effort to set up the impressive comeback victory after the Heat missed on the potential game-winner at the buzzer.

Toronto v Sacramento free prediction

The Raptors are still shorthanded with Scottie Barnes, Immanuel Quickley and Bruce Brown all ruled out, while the Kings are keeping an eye on Kevin Huerter who is questionable. These two teams last met on Saturday and it was the Raptors who got the win in overtime on Vince Carter’s jersey retirement day, but with the series shifting back to Sacramento, I am looking at the Kings to get their revenge in this one. The line is hefty, but I think the Kings take the early lead and win this one comfortably at home.
