After going 2-1 on a three-game homestand, the Toronto Raptors head to Orlando to face the Magic on Friday night.

Fultz has topped this line in one of five games since making his 2022-23 debut, averaging just 9.2 points. Barnes’ last four games have been particularly strong, as his PRA average jumped to 32.6. Anunoby under 1.5 threes (-106): This is a line that Anunoby cleared consistently early in the season but he’s hit multiple 3-pointers in just four of his last 11 games, draining 28% of his shots from beyond the arc. One of the things Orlando does best as a team is limit perimeter shooters, allowing the seventh-lowest 3-point percentage in the NBA (34.2%). In recent weeks, Barnea has hit this over consistently. Key stat: Barnes had 35 PRA and his best +/- of the season (+34) in his last matchup with the Magic.

The Orlando Magic look to build off their streak-busting win as they take on the Toronto Raptors and look to avenge a loss from a week ago.

In last week’s game against the Magic in Toronto, the Raptors scored 70 points in the paint. The Magic are 27th giving up 16.1 fast-break points per game and 26th with 20.0 points off turnovers per game. This is the key for the Magic’s success. Orlando turned it over six times to put the team in the hole but only had seven turnovers the rest of the game. In wins, the Magic give up just 44.0 points in the paint per game. The Toronto Raptors overall average 52.4 points in the paint per game, 10th in the league. The Raptors’ defense is as strong as ever. The Raptors are very good at the things the Magic are typically weak at. But also because the Raptors routed the Magic just a week ago in Toronto. [This is what the Magic’s focus is defensively right now](https://orlandomagicdaily.com/2022/12/08/jamahl-mosley-is-keeping-the-big-picture-in-mind-with-orlando-magic/).

The Raptors look to keep the winning times alive as they take on the injury-riddled Magic.

The other factor mentioned above is the turnover battle, and Toronto is one of the best in the league at both limiting turnovers of their own as well as forcing the other team into turnovers. On the flip side, a not entirely disconcerting stat is that, on the road — where Toronto is an ugly 3-9 —the Raptors drop all the way down to 18th overall in TRP while Orlando shoots up to 6th. [Orlando Magic](https://www.orlandopinstripedpost.com), this is a team that the Raptors should obliterate.
