With the Raptors catching only 1.5 points on the road in what will be Minnesota's home opener, oddsmakers seem to expect a strong effort from Toronto. It makes sense, the addition of Kawhi Leonard with the core of Scottie Barnes, Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett is great on paper, and they match up well with the T-Wolves.

That's Sunday's dynamic, as Philly hosted the Bucks last night. The Pistons are a bonafide Eastern Conference Finals contender and are the fresher team.
