Key Factors
Favors Over
The Raptors are expected to see a spike in plays in this game from sharing the court with the 2nd-fastest pace road offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (the Indiana Pacers).

As it relates to offense, the Raptors's poor 111.5 points per game at home measures as the 2nd-fewest in the NBA over the last 20 games.
This year, opposing starting PFs have averaged 2.5 three attempts per game (fewest in the NBA) vs. the Pacers, designating this as a hard matchup.
The Raptors have played at the 10th-least up-tempo tempo in the league this year.
