Philadelphia 76ers vs Orlando Magic Prediction

At least once a day we see a massive underdog in the preseason, and there’s been a fair share of blowouts. I still can’t bring myself to lay 7 or more points in a preseason game. The Orlando Magic also hasn’t played since the ninth, so who knows how they’re going to look or what lineups they’re going to throw out. The Philadelphia 76ers have had a lot of recent playoff success, and they’ve been sharp defensively. Give me the boatload of points.
