The Toronto Raptors (1-1) are on the road tonight, facing the Dallas Mavericks (0-2) at American Airlines Center.
Toronto’s offense has taken a major leap to start the season. The Raptors rank 6th in the NBA in scoring at 127.0 points per game, with six players averaging double figures. Brandon Ingram and RJ Barrett lead the way at 22.5 points apiece, while Immanuel Quickley and Scottie Barnes have provided steady secondary playmaking. The team’s ball movement has been elite — they’re 4th in assists at 30.5 per game — and the pace (108.1) and spacing have produced a more balanced attack than last season.
Dallas, meanwhile, is winless two games into the season and searching for rhythm. Rookie Cooper Flagg has shown promise, with 10 points and 10 rebounds in his debut, followed by 18 points in his second game.
But the No. 1 overall pick has been thrust into a point guard role he’s ill-suited for. And it shows. The Mavericks rank in the bottom four in assists at just 21.5 per game, and they’re last in the NBA in scoring, averaging 99.5 per game. It’s a small sample, but when there are 12 teams averaging above 120 points per game, that kind of dismal production is not a good sign for Dallas.
Predictions
The Raptors’ pace and spacing have been elite through two games, while the Mavericks’ stagnant offense and defensive lapses could make it another long night.
Prediction: Raptors 125, Mavericks 109
