Cleveland Cavaliers vs Orlando Magic Prediction
The Cavaliers could be slightly shorthanded again with Darius Garland upgraded to questionable for this game, while the Magic are still missing Jalen Suggs and Moritz Wagner. The Cavaliers are coming into this meeting as the hottest team in the league, they despatched the Grizzlies despite shooting just 13 of 47 from the 3-point line, and I don’t see them slowing down. The Magic have shown signs of improvement over their past eight games, and they cruised past the Wizards in their last outing. The Cavaliers are just on fire at the moment, they’re almost at full strength and I think they make light work of this line.
