Schuyler Callihan: Raptors 114, Hornets 107.

Even if Mark Williams is able to go, I don't see the Hornets winning this game. They appear to be in a bit of a funk right now, proving that the win over Boston was fluky. Toronto takes control early and leads most of the way.

Prediction record: 7-5.

James Plowright: Raptors 121, Hornets 113.

Toronto haven’t been playing well in recent weeks, but at least they’re largely healthy. The Hornets don’t look like winning a game unless they have an outlier shooting performance which could be difficult against Toronto’s collecting of lengthy defenders.

Prediction record: 9-2.

Will Eudy: Raptors 115, Hornets 106.

While not great record-wise, the Raptors are always tough defensively with their wing-heavy lineups. Without Mark Williams and LaMelo Ball, the Hornets likely come up short in the scoring department yet again.

Prediction record: 9-6.
