Warriors vs. Raptors 2019: Game 6 Betting Odds, Toronto Favored To Beat Golden State In NBA Finals

The Golden State Warriors somehow managed to survive Game 5 of the 2019 NBA Finals, despite losing Kevin Durant to an Achilles injury and the Toronto Raptors taking control of the contest for much of the fourth quarter. After Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson made big shots in crunch time to lead the defending champs to a victory on the road, Golden State is favored to find its way back to Canada for a deciding Game 7.

The Warriors are 3.5-point favorites in Game 6 at home Thursday night, according to OddsShark. Golden State is an underdog in the series with +215 betting odds. Toronto has -260 odds to win one of the next two games.

The Raptors are 2-0 against the Warriors at Oracle Arena in this series. Toronto routed Golden State in Game 3 when a hamstring injury prevented Thompson from playing. Both Splash Brothers were on the court in Game 4 when the Raptors won 105-92, putting the Warriors on the brink of elimination.

Durant scored 11 points in 12 minutes Monday night before an injury ended his postseason. He obviously won’t play again in the finals.

Golden State knows something about a team coming back from a 3-1 deficit in the finals. The only reason the champs aren’t trying to win their fifth straight title is that the Warriors blew a 3-1 lead to LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2016 NBA Finals.

Curry led the Warriors with 31 points in Game 5, and he leads all players with 32.4 points per game this series. The point guard is also averaging 5.6 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game.

Kawhi Leonard had a big fourth quarter Monday night, but it wasn’t enough. The 2014 NBA Finals MVP is averaging 29.8 points, 10.6 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 2.0 steals per game this series. He scored 30 points in Game 3 and 36 points in Game 4.

The Game 6 total is 210.5. The Warriors haven’t scored 110 points once against the Raptors.
