Magic vs Knicks Prediction

The Knicks are due for a victory after a frustrating start, and they should like their chances against the Magic. The Magic look lost defensively, and now they’re down Banchero for the next month. We saw the Magic have issues scoring in their last effort, and that should be the case even more without their best player. It’s a large number, but the Knicks are in a far better position in a battle of two winless teams. I’ll lay the points.
