Spurs at Magic picks and predictionsPrediction
Magic 110, Spurs 108
There shouldn’t be this big of a gap. The Spurs are without Wemby, and the Magic are without Paolo. Both sides will need supplemental scoring boosts. The Magic are 28th in the league with 11.2 three-pointers per game. That’s where the Spurs can keep it close. PASS here, but I think San Antonio has a shot.
Take the SPURS +7.5 (-105). They’re 6-2 straight up and ATS in the last 8 games and are a decent 5-4 on the road this season.
The Magic are 8-2 O/U in their last 10, and the Spurs are 5-5. They’re both in the top 10 in PPG, but neither plays at a meteoric rate. Orlando can’t shoot the three. Give me UNDER 235.5 (-110).
