Magic vs Jazz Prediction

Two teams at the end of a back-to-back; usually, the team that’s not traveling has the edge. The problem is the Jazz have just one win and two covers. The Jazz are in the running for the worst team in the NBA, and their offense is nonexistent. The Magic have issues of their own, and the injuries don’t help.

However, we saw the Magic get a feel-good win last night over the Kings. It feels like this schedule is just what the doctor ordered for the Magic to get right and turn their season around. Back-to-back games against bottom feeders. I’m going to lay the points with the Magic, but it has more to do with how awful the Jazz are than anything else.
