Toronto Raptors vs Chicago Bulls Final Score & Over/Under Result — Mar 18, 2026

RJ Barrett's 23-point performance anchored Toronto's wire-to-wire dominance, as the Raptors cruised to a 139–109 victory and sent the combined total soaring past expectations. The 248-point finish cleared the 237.5 market total by 10.5, rewarding an over lean that hinged on Toronto's offensive tempo overwhelming a Chicago defense that has been porous of late. Barrett's efficiency was emblematic of the visitors' control: after combining for 49 points in Q1, the teams exploded for 68 in Q2—the game's highest-scoring quarter—as Toronto's ball movement and Chicago's vulnerability in transition created a widening chasm. The Raptors outscored the Bulls 72–56 in the first half, and while Chicago showed some fight down the stretch (33 points in Q4), the second half's 131 combined points sealed the outcome in Toronto's favor.

Scottie Barnes added 18 points and 7 rebounds for the Raptors, while Brandon Ingram chipped in 18 and 4 boards. For Chicago, Matas Buzelis led with 19 points and 7 rebounds, and Rob Dillingham contributed 15 points and 4 assists. The gulf in execution was evident in the quarter-by-quarter flow: Toronto's 32-point opening set the tone, and though Chicago narrowed margins late, the home team never recovered from the early onslaught. This matchup marked the third meeting between these clubs this season; the previous two totaled 211 and 230, respectively. Today's 248 easily eclipsed that range, a product of Toronto's relentless pace and Chicago's inability to contain a balanced offensive attack.
