| Scottie BarnesRaptors | Points over | 25.5 PPG through two games | Ten is a quiet night for Toronto's leading scorer. |
| RJ BarrettRaptors | Points over | 21.5 PPG through two games | Ten is about half his scoring rate so far. |
| LaMelo BallTimberwolves | Points over | 20.1 PPG, 72 games | Ten from a lead guard who has 16.5 a game in Minnesota. |
