Orlando Magic Betting Preview
The Orlando Magic have been in decent shape as they’ve won four of their last six games overall and they will be looking to keep it going after outlasting the Trail Blazers in a 115-112 home win on Monday. Paolo Banchero led the team with 28 points, nine rebounds and three assists, Desmond Bane added 22 points with seven assists while Franz Wagner and Wendell Carter Jr each scored 19 points. As a team, the Magic shot 44 percent from the field and eight of 30 from the 3-point line as they got off to a decent start and played solid defense to build a 14-point lead in the third quarter. They survived a late rally from the Trail Blazers who cut the lead to just two points with 4:46 left on the clock.

Meanwhile, the New York Knicks have been in terrific form as they are now gunning for a sixth straight victory after running past the Grizzlies in a 133-120 home win last night. Jalen Brunson led the team with 32 points and 10 assists on 11 of 19 shooting, Mikal Bridges added 22 points with seven rebounds and five assists, Karl-Anthony Towns tallied 21 points with 13 rebounds while OG Anunoby chipped in with 16 points. As a team, the Knicks shot 48 percent from the field and 22 of 55 from the 3-point line as they set the tone with 42 points in the first quarter to lead by as many as 28 points. They held on to win by just 13 points in the end.

Orlando Magic vs New York Knicks Prediction
The Magic are still missing Moritz Wagner, while the Knicks have again ruled out Mitchell Robinson who is dealing with an ankle injury. The Magic are starting to build some momentum and they would’ve taken plenty of confidence from their narrow win over the Trail Blazers in their last outing. However, the Knicks come into this meeting as one of the hottest teams in the league, especially at home where they have won all seven games so far. The Magic are more than capable of pulling off the upset, but I still prefer a play on the Knicks despite them playing their second game of a back to back set.
