PRO BASKETBALL
Brooklyn over *Toronto by 3
Brooklyn has been terrible on the road, but the Raptors have been hard-pressed to get
any scoring this year besides streak shooters Rudy Gay and DeMar DeRozan.
BROOKLYN 101-98.
**PREFERRED
*Washington over Los Angeles Lakers by 13
The Lakers are weak defensively at point guard so they figure to have problems with
John Wall. The Wizards don't have much up front, but the Lakers lack the interior
muscle to take advantage. Washington should be rested and ready having been idle
since Saturday. The Wizards were 20-9 ATS in their last 29 home contests through
Monday.
WASHINGTON 108-95.
*Atlanta over Orlando by 7
The Hawks caught a flat Orlando squad playing in the second of consecutive games
when they won 104-94 at home on Nov. 9. It was the 10th straight time the Hawks
have defeated the Magic at home.
ATLANTA 102-95.
Golden State over *New Orleans by 4
The Warriors open a four-game road trip against all Western Conference foes. Golden
State was 15-7-1 ATS in its last 23 games versus Western Conference opponents
through Nov. 17. The Warriors have been idle since Saturday, while the Pelicans were
at the Spurs Monday night.
GOLDEN STATE 106-102.
