After a scorching-hot start to the season in which he was contributing 26.5 points and shooting better than 57% from behind the arc through the Lakers' first four outings, Austin Reaves has cooled off considerably over his last two appearances.
He's averaged more turnovers (eight) than made shots (7.5), burying just 16.7% of his 3-point attempts to the tune of 18.5 points in 34 minutes of action.
Reaves will snap out of his ongoing funk sooner or later, but doing so against a resolute defensive arsenal from north of the border may be asking too much on this night.
Play up to 60%.
The easy explanation here is that Scottie Barnes has yet to exceed 5.5 assists in a single game this season, maxing out at five dimes three different times.
A deeper dive into the All-Star forward's numbers is that he's taken more of an onus as a scorer without Leonard by his side, as indicated by the career-high 41 points on 34 shot attempts Barnes just registered versus Orlando. The 25-year-old's 24 points per contest on 21.6 shots are blowing away his previous career bests of 19.9 points and 16.4 field-goal attempts, respectively.
He's only third on the roster in assists (4.4) and potential assists (eight), both of which are noticeable drops from his production a season ago (5.9 assists to 9.6 potential assists).
Play up to 55%.
The Los Angeles Lakers rank second in offense at 119.3 points per 100 possessions, yet mustered just 95 points in 48 minutes in a 17-point defeat to the Golden State Warriors and their bottom-third defense on Friday.
Chalk it up to a poor shooting night (40% from the field) for the most efficient team in the Association (50.7%, 1st). However, against an incoming Toronto Raptors defense holding opponents to 103.2 points per 100 possessions (2nd), a similar cold spell will surely result in a third loss in four games for Los Angeles.
All good things must come to an end. Los Angeles has had Toronto's number for quite some time, but its reign of dominance feels like it's ready to subside, especially if the Raptors can take the rock out of Doncic's hands.
The two teams are a combined 5-6 in the total market. Whilst Toronto owns a top-10 offense, it's still scoring 4.5 fewer points with Kawhi Leonard (knee) sidelined.
RJ Barrett has battled the Lakers on four occasions while donning Raptors colors, averaging 25.5 points and shooting 58.8% from the field. He went Over Sunday's number of 20.5 points three times, and shot better than 61% three times, as well.
