The Toronto Raptors are gearing up for the upcoming season with their eyes set on the playoffs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toronto was a buyer at last year’s trade deadline, acquiring Brandon Ingram from the New Orleans Pelicans, while simultaneously tanking for a lottery pick. That positioned the squad to be competitive this season, with several contending Eastern Conference teams taking a step back with injury concerns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those are some of the questions worth exploring as we dive into Raptors betting markets and make our best futures predictions for the upcoming season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raptors futures odds as of 2:30 p.m. ET on 10\/14\/2025.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toronto is fresh off what I’ll describe as the “most ethical” tank of all time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Raptors went 30-52 \u2014 good for the seventh-worst record in basketball \u2014 while covering the spread in 59.3% of games, second to only the Oklahoma City Thunder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How did the basketball gods reward their efforts? By having Toronto slide out of the top-five into the ninth draft spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The team used that pick on Collin Murray-Boyles, a standout power forward from the South Carolina Gamecocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also marked Masai Ujiri’s last draft as team president, as the 2019 NBA Championship architect was let go, with Bobby Webster staying put as the general manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toronto’s lineup should be competitive enough on paper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scottie Barnes headlines the group with Ingram, Immanuel Quickley, RJ Barrett and Jakob Poeltl \u2014 all capable NBA players \u2014 rounding out the starting roster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still, the Raps are long shots to win their division, with the odds skewing ever so slightly toward them missing the playoffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best bet: Raptors to make the playoffs (+100)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think Toronto is well-positioned to secure a playoff spot this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Raptors have five studs in their starting lineup, with a bench that got a ton of experience down the stretch as those starters were often rested or held out due to injuries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Barnes is a stat-stuffing extraordinare, averaging well over 30 PRA in the last two seasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He hasn’t developed into the offence-first player Toronto would have probably liked, but is still only 24 years old, and now gets a bona fide bucket-getter in Ingram to play off of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Barrett and Quickley are capable of putting up big numbers on a nightly basis, and Poeltl quietly led the Raptors in win shares per 49 minutes (.158) last season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I’m very bullish on a bench featuring Jamal Shead, Gradey Dick, Murray-Boyles, Ja’Kobe Walter and Jonathan Mogbo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the NBA’s play-in tournament, basically any team is alive to make the postseason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toronto was only eliminated from the playoffs on April 1 last year, despite its horrible record. It should easily cruise up a few spots actually intending to win games this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brandon Ingram futures prediction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Prediction: Ingram to average over 22.5 points (+150)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are plenty of mouths to feed on Toronto’s offence. But Ingram was brought in and extended for a specific reason \u2014 to get buckets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Think of the 6-foot-8, 190-pound small forward as a Kevin Durant lite. He has a solid handle, does tons of damage in the midrange, and has respectable 3-point shooting splits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
