The Toronto Raptors offense exploded against the Golden State Warriors last night. The question is, can they keep it up on back-to-back nights when they visit the Sacramento Kings?

My Raptors vs. Kings predictions break down why the Raps will keep roaring in the third game of their West Coast road trip. 

Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley fuel my NBA picks for this matchup set to go at 10 pm ET at Golden 1 Arena in Sacramento.

Raptors vs Kings prediction

Raptors vs Kings best bet: Raptors team total Over 115.5 (-115)

The Toronto Raptors took advantage of the Warriors playing without Jimmy Butler and went off for a season-high 145 points in last night's victory. 

Immanuel Quickley led the way with 40 while Brandon Ingram and Scottie Barnes both had 20+ points apiece. Tonight, they take on a Sacramento Kings team that gives up a ton of buckets.

Sacramento ranks 27th in defensive rating and has surrendered 118.2 points per game over the last 15 games.

Toronto has a team total of 115.5, a number the Raps have topped in six of their last 10 games.

Raptors vs Kings same-game parlay

Quickely’s 40 burger is the culmination of some improved play from the Raptors guard. He’s averaging 19.2 points over his last 14 games and has eclipsed tonight's point total in 10 of those 14.

Meanwhile, Barnes is on a hot streak. He’s scored 22 or more points in five of his last six, averaging 24 over that stretch. Mix in the Kings' poor rebounding, and there should be plenty of second-chance opportunities for the Raps to go Over these point totals.
