Orlando Magic vs LA Clippers Prediction
The LA Clippers at home are worth a look because the Magic are still down their best player in Banchero. However, the Magic have won 6 straight games and their defense continues to get after it. The Magic have held each of their last 6 opponents under 100 points. The LA Clippers are still without Kawhi, but now Norman Powell has been ruled out. Harden has turned back the clock some, but it’s been Powell who has done a lot of the heavy lifting scoring-wise. Not ideal being down their leading scorer against this Magic defense. I’ll lay the bucket with the Magic.
