The Toronto Raptors are 1-1 on the season following a 112-106 setback at Boston last night. They'll be playing on no rest here at the 1-1 Chicago Bulls Saturday night, but note that the home team also will play the second leg of a back-to-back after picking up 110-102 triumph at Memphis on Friday.

It will be interesting to see how the Bulls will develop throughout the season, but I think the Raptors are due for a statement game after starting the season with two rather disappointing outings.

The Raptors are 11-3 ATS in their last 14 games playing on no rest and the road team is 7-0 ATS in the last 7 meetings in this series.

10* play on Toronto Raptors.
