Magic at 76ers picks and predictionsPrediction

76ers 118, Magic 113

BET 76ERS (-102).

The 76ers have been trading off wins so consistently that they should be likely to bounce back Tuesday. Philadelphia is 5-4 ATS and straight up at home. It has performed well offensively with George back as well, averaging 120 points per game (PPG) over its last 2 contests.

The Magic are 3-2 across their last 5 games, but their defense has been sloppy, allowing 129.5 PPG in their last 2 contests and at least 113 points in 4 of their last 5. Without Banchero, they might struggle to keep pace with a dynamic Philadelphia attack. Orlando is 3-5 straight up on the road.

Expect Philadelphia to win at home and take 76ERS (-102).

PASS.

There can be value on the spread, but it is so narrow that the moneyline is the preferred route here.

BET OVER 227.5 (-110).

Both teams have scored with ease as of late. Orlando has tallied at least 121 points in 4 straight games and has gone Over in 5 in a row. The Magic are 11-7 O/U on the season.

Philadelphia has gone Over in 2 straight games, and while its offense is surging, it has had defensive shortcomings, allowing at least 114 points in 3 straight games. It is 9-7 O/U on the season.

Considering the trends for each side, expect points and back OVER 227.5 (-110).
