Chicago Bulls at Toronto Raptors
Bulls at Raptors: Chicago will visit Toronto on Sunday without shooter Lauri Markkanen, a 6-foot-10 matchup problem that keeps the Bulls from being easy to guard. Fred VanVleet has been tremendous in keeping Toronto atop the Atlantic Division, the Raptors are too deep and well-coached by Nick Nurse to have much trouble in this matinee. Look for a blowout Toronto win and lay the points in a game that will likely be parlayed heavily. It’s chalky, but I think this one will make the books nervous since it will be difficult to set this spread high enough. RAPTORS
