Magic at Trail Blazers picks and predictionsPrediction

Magic 120, Trail Blazers 115

The Magic are 6-8 in away games and have dropped 3 of their last 4 games on the road, but the Blazers are only 5-7 at home. And while Portland has won 3 of their last 4 games, the 3 wins were against teams under .500.

Since losing 4 straight games to start the season 1-4, the Magic have not lost 4 games in a 5-game stretch.

Betting the moneyline here isn’t a bad bet, especially if you want to avoid losing on a 1-point win that doesn’t cover the spread. But the spread gives you a better value
