Betting insights
- Notable players who’ve been ruled out for Monday: Paolo Banchero, Scottie Barnes, DeMar DeRozan and Tyrese Maxey. Among the players with a questionable tag — as of 8:30 a.m. — are Stephen Curry and Joel Embiid.
- Toronto and Indiana’s four matchups last season were all track meets. The over went 4-0, and every game went over 250 points. Tonight’s total is set at 233.5 points, which is a total the Raptors have gone under in five of their past six.
- The highest overs rate of the young season belongs to the Hawks, who’ve hit the over in 11 of 14 games (78.6%). They’re on the road to face a Kings team that has the sixth-best offensive rating and has hit the over in four of their past five games.
- The Clippers have won four games in a row against the Warriors, including a 112-104 win on the road as 9-point underdogs last month. Los Angeles is an underdog again, this time at home, against a Golden State team whose only loss since their last meeting came against the unbeaten Cleveland Cavaliers. Oh, and the over has cashed in seven straight Warriors games.
