What you need to know about the Raptors
The Raptors had enough points to win and then some against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday, taking their game 117-104. Toronto’s power forward Pascal Siakam shot 6-for-7 from beyond the arc and finished with 35 points, six dimes and five rebounds.
The Raptors are now in a fierce battle with the Cavaliers and Bulls to pull themselves out of the play-in tournament and into a top-six seed and Siakam has been willing them through of late. He’s had at least 20 points in 11 of his last 12 games and is averaging 26.2 points per game while shooting a staggering 48.9 percent from the 3-point line during the month of March.
What you need to know about the Pacers
Meanwhile, the Pacers fell 133-103 to the Memphis Grizzlies on Thursday. Indiana was in a tough position by the half, with the score already sitting at 74-48. A silver lining for them was the play of shooting guard Lance Stephenson, who shot 5-for-5 from downtown and finished with 25 points.
Indiana has struggled against the spread overall this season with a 34-40 ATS mark. The Pacers, however, are 14-12 ATS as road underdogs, so this a spot where they’ve been relatively successful for bettors.
