My model favors the Raptors. There is no home court advantage here for the Raptors playing in Tampa, however the duo of Lowry and Vanvleet, along with super-star-lite Sakiam will prove to be too much for Pelicans to handle. Lay the points.

Score: 10

My model favors the Hawks. The team is armed with new long range snipers, ie Gallinari et al. This is going to be a shoot out with Trae leading the way. No one is playing D in this game. They haven’t done too well in preseason against the Grizzlies last Thursday, look for the Hawks to revenge that loss tonight. Take the points.
