Who won Toronto Raptors vs Washington Wizards?

Who was favored in Toronto Raptors vs Washington Wizards?

Toronto Raptors were the favorite at DraftKings, moneyline -340 (about 77% implied). The favorite won.

The Toronto Raptors secured a 112-102 victory over the Washington Wizards at Capital One Arena, marking their third consecutive win to start the season and extending their lead in the series to 2-0 against the Wizards. The Raptors, now boasting a 3-0 record, showcased their offensive prowess, averaging 121.4 points per game this season. In contrast, the Wizards fell to 1-2, continuing their struggle with a recent record of 1-9 over their last ten games.

The Raptors' recent form has been impressive, with their last ten games yielding a record of 6-4. They have demonstrated a strong scoring ability, averaging 121.4 points while allowing only 106.2 points per game. Their most recent victory against the Chicago Bulls, where they won decisively 135-92, highlights their offensive capabilities. The Wizards, however, have faced challenges, particularly at home, where they hold a record of 1-4 in their last five games. Their scoring average at home is 113.9, but they have been outscored significantly, allowing an average of 130.3 points per game.

In terms of home versus away performance, the Raptors have excelled at home with a record of 5-1 in their last six home games, while the Wizards have struggled on the road, holding an away record of 0-5 in their last five outings. This disparity in performance is evident in their head-to-head meetings as well, where the Raptors now lead the series 2-0 this season, having previously defeated the Wizards 134-125 on March 1, 2026, and 140-110 on November 22, 2025.

Injuries have also impacted both teams. The Wizards were without AJ Dybantsa (ankle), Tristan Vukcevic (hip), and Jamir Watkins (knee), which limited their options on the court. The Raptors were missing Nate Bittle due to a foot injury, but they managed to maintain their strong performance despite this absence.

The betting market reflected the Raptors' strong start to the season, with DraftKings setting the spread at 9.5 points in favor of Toronto and the total points line at 236.5. The odds for the Raptors to win straight up were -340, while the Wizards were listed at +270.

The game featured notable scoring plays, especially in the fourth quarter, where Kawhi Leonard and Scottie Barnes made critical contributions to secure the win for Toronto. Leonard's driving layup and tip shot, along with Barnes' driving layup and free throw, helped the Raptors pull away in the final moments. The Wizards attempted to close the gap with free throws from Bilal Coulibaly and a pull-up jump shot from Tre Johnson, but it was not enough to overcome the Raptors' lead.

Overall, this matchup showcased the Raptors' offensive strength and defensive resilience, while the Wizards continue to search for answers as they look to improve their form moving forward.
