After a draining overtime battle yesterday, the Toronto Raptors and Philadelphia 76ers could both use a day off \u2014 instead, they\u2019re squaring off for a rematch tonight.<\/p>\n
Toronto rallied for a nail-biting win last night behind 31 points from Scottie Barnes, and my 76ers vs. Raptors predictions expect Barnes to be a spark plug again here for Darko Rajakovic\u2019s squad.<\/p>\n

Read on for my free NBA picks<\/a> ahead of this January 12 matchup.<\/p>\n 76ers vs Raptors prediction<\/p>\n 76ers vs Raptors best bet: Scottie Barnes Over 18.5 points (-120)<\/p>\n The Scottie Barnes<\/a> All-Star campaign may not have won over the global NBA fan community \u2014 he was 14th among Eastern Conference players in the last round of voting results \u2014 but it would be a shock if he doesn\u2019t end up making the cut.<\/p>\n Barnes is averaging 19.4 PPG this season to go with elite defense and steady playmaking, and I\u2019m banking on another special performance here.<\/p>\n There are also signs that he\u2019s taking things up a notch in 2026, with a 21.5 PPG mark so far in January, headlined by a 10-for-19 shooting effort last night in 43 minutes of action.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Scottie has gone past this number in five of his past nine outings, and this prop still has value tonight even if Brandon Ingram returns from a thumb issue.<\/p>\n Perhaps most encouragingly, Barnes has cut back on his 3-point attempts \u2014 he\u2019s only shooting 34% from downtown this year \u2014 and that\u2019s helped his efficiency. He\u2019s shot 50% or better from the field in five of his past seven outings.<\/p>\n The road to this Over gets a little tougher if Joel Embiid and Paul George return for the Philadelphia 76ers<\/a> here, but I still see Scottie doing the heavy lifting again for a\u00a0Toronto Raptors<\/a> offense that desperately needs his paint scoring.<\/p>\n 76ers vs Raptors same-game parlay<\/p>\n Tyrese Maxey<\/a> did most of his damage as a scorer last night, torching the Raptors for 38 points. But he could amp up his playmaking here (6.8 APG), especially if the 76ers have a full-strength starting five on the court tonight.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n He\u2019s even posted a double-digit assists tally twice in the past two weeks.<\/p>\n With the potential for more mouths to feed in the Philadelphia offense, I\u2019ll take the Under on VJ Edgecombe<\/a>\u2019s 3-pointers.<\/p>\n He\u2019s fallen short of this number in three straight games, and he\u2019s only making his triples at a 35% clip so far in January.<\/p>\n 76ers vs Raptors SGP<\/p>\n Scottie Barnes Over 18.5 points<\/p>\n Tyrese Maxey Over 6.5 assists<\/p>\n VJ Edgecombe Under 2.5 3-pointers<\/p>\n Our “from downtown” SGP: More assists for Mamu<\/p>\n Sandro Mamukelashvili<\/a> had a quiet outing last night, but I see him bouncing back with more impressive numbers here.<\/p>\n He\u2019s dished 2+ dimes in four of his last five games, including eight assists against the Hawks earlier this month, and he has more freedom to make plays when he\u2019s part of the Toronto bench unit.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n 76ers vs Raptors SGP<\/p>\n Scottie Barnes Over 18.5 points<\/p>\n Tyrese Maxey Over 6.5 assists<\/p>\n VJ Edgecombe Under 2.5 3-pointers<\/p>\n Sandro Mamukelashvili Over 1.5 assists<\/p>\n 76ers vs Raptors odds<\/p>\n Spread: 76ers -3.5 | Raptors +3.5<\/p>\n Moneyline: 76ers -158 | Raptors +134<\/p>\n Over\/Under: Over 220.5 | Under 220.5<\/p>\n 76ers vs Raptors betting trend to know<\/p>\n The Over is 7-3 in the 76ers\u2019 last 10 games.
