The Golden State Warriors can extend their win streak to four against the Toronto Raptors at Scotiabank Arena.
The latest: The Raptors have lost seven of their last 10 games and need their best players to step up if they want to get back on track against the Warriors. Expect big efforts from Brandon Ingram and Scottie Barnes in this afternoon's showdown.
Check out my Warriors vs. Raptors prop bets for Dec. 28, featuring predictions on Ingram and Barnes.

Warriors vs. Raptors prop bets
Best bet: Barnes over 8.5 rebounds (-129)
A lot of this pick is based on fading the Warriors. They lack size in the paint, and that's concerning.
Their tallest player is Quinten Post, but he plays a measly 18.8 minutes per night. Draymond Green ends up spending a lot of time at centre, and he's 6-foot-6, a size more fit for a forward.
Barnes averages just under this total at 7.9 rebounds per game, but he always has the potential to smash this line.
-> Full Warriors vs. Raptors prop markets at NorthStar Bets
- In 32 games this season, Barnes has 14 double-doubles.
- He's finished over this total in eight of the last 15 games.
I expect a big game from Barnes. He has the right matchup to haul in a lot of rebounds.
The Raptors' star had a 29-point double-double last time they played the Warriors.
Key stat: Golden State gives up the seventh-most rebounds per game to power forwards (10.9).
Raptors picks and predictions
Ingram over 21.5 points (-127): The Raptors need to deliver a strong performance after a tough loss to the Washington Wizards.
That should mean a lot of shots for Ingram. He finished the last game with 29 points on 10-for-20 shooting. He only hit 1-of-7 3s, so there's room for more production.
Ingram finished under this total in the two games before, but he's still 6-2 against this over in the last eight, averaging 25.3 points.

Even against Golden State's defence, Ingram should be in for enough volume to get past this total.
He takes over 17 shots a night with just under five free throws.
This line is likely based on the Warriors' great defence (second in defensive efficiency), but it's still too low.
