Why the Raptors can cover
Toronto has strengths on both ends, including an elite offensive rebounding performance this season. The Raptors are snatching more than 33 percent of their own missed shots, and Toronto is also tremendous in the area of ball security with a top-five turnover rate in the NBA. Philadelphia is currently a bottom-five defensive rebounding team in the NBA, with opponents securing more than 30 percent of misses against the 76ers.
On defense, the Raptors are athletic and versatile, allowing only 1.05 points per possession for a top-10 overall mark. Toronto leads the NBA in steals, averaging nearly 11 per game, and the Raptors are above-average in limiting assists. The Raptors are also a top-three team in both fast-break points allowed and points allowed in the paint, working well on the margins to boost overall efficiency.
Why the 76ers can cover
Philadelphia’s defense is lagging behind its dominant form when compared to previous seasons. However, the 76ers are facing a relatively strong matchup given Toronto’s offensive weaknesses. The Raptors are a bottom-10 team in free-throw creation with a bottom-five mark in assists per game. Toronto is also shooting less than 50 percent on 2-point attempts for the season, and in contrast, Philadelphia’s offense is off to a flying start.

The 76ers are a top-three team in 3-point shooting (38.0 percent) and free-throw shooting (82.5 percent), with Philadelphia taking care of the ball with only 12.8 turnovers per game this season.
