It’s Magic! Orlando is One of the NBA’s Hottest Bets
The Orlando Magic have covered the spread in 11 of their last 15 games en route to being one of the league’s most profitable teams over the last month. However, they’re entering uncharted territory tonight as 7.5-point favorites on the hallowed floor at Madison Square Garden. New York is coming off a win of its own vs San Antonio on Sunday and is 2-1 SU and ATS in its last three.
Standout Stats
My Best Bet for Magic vs Knicks
Knicks UNDER 104 points
The Knicks team total for this game is 104, just above their average this month of 103.2. However, the 130 points against San Antonio on Sunday does inflate that. In New York’s last 10 games, it has eclipsed 104 points just three times, while Orlando has kept teams below 104 points six times in the last 10 games and to an average of 101 points this month.
The Knicks are one of the worst shooting teams in the NBA while Orlando is one of the better defensive teams and has kept New York to an average of 103 points per game through the first two meetings this season.
