Trae Young led the team with 36 points and 11 assists on 10 of 22 shooting, Caris LeVert provided the spark off the bench with 31 points on 12 of 15 shooting while Georges Niang chipped in with 16 points. As a team, the Hawks shot 47 percent from the field and 16 of 42 from the 3-point line as they struggled to get going.

Orlando Magic vs Atlanta Hawks Prediction

The Magic could be missing a bunch of players in this one with Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Paolo Banchero, Wendell Carter Jr and Franz Wagner all listed as questionable. The Hawks are keeping eyes on Georges Niang, Onyeka Okongwu, Dyson Daniels, Trae Young, and Caris LeVert who are all questionable. This is definitely one of those games where you should check the lineups before tipoff given that both teams have so many players on the injury report. It's hard to split these two squads in this one, but I'm going to assume that both teams will be resting their starters so this game will come down to the reserves. With that being said, the Magic got a combined 46 points from Queen and Black in their last outing and I think they can pull off the minor upset in this spot.
