Toronto Raptors ( 58-24 )

Meanwhile the Toronto Raptors kept their season alive Sunday night by winning a virtual must-win game in the 2019 Eastern Conference Finals.

In game 3 Kawhi Leonard led the way and scored 36 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists and received critical help from his team mate Pascal Siakam scored 25 points, 11 rebounds and 3 steals,  Norman Powell 19 points and Marc Gasol 16 points, 12 rebounds, 7 assists and 5 blocks to win a game in double overtime 118-112.

Inconsistency from Toronto’s secondary options has been an issue for much of the playoffs, but Siakam and Gasol challenged that narrative just in time during Sunday’s bounce-back win. Siakam’s performance was particularly important because he has been the team’s next-best scorer for extended stretches this season and the one the Raptors turn to whenever Leonard needs a brief respite. The series continues with Tuesday’s Game 4 in Toronto.

ATS- Against The Spread

Betting against the spread is a good betting strategy when the point spread is low, or the bettor believes the team they are betting on can beat their opponent by at least the point spread advertised. If the bettor believes the team will win big, betting against the spread will result in a huge payout. An example of betting against the spread would be if a wager that the Boston Celtics (-7) would beat the Indiana Pacers (+7). That means the Celtics would have to win by more than 7 points for the individual to win his bet.
