Grizzlies vs. Magic picks and predictionsPrediction
Magic 115, Grizzlies 111
PASS.
There’s no great moneyline option. The Magic (-200) should come out on top, but they aren’t worthy to take as an expensive favorite.
BET GRIZZLIES +4.5 (-110).
The Magic have been incredibly inconsistent. They certainly haven’t rewarded bettors as of late either, going 2-5 ATS in their last 7 contests as a favorite. They have failed to cover in 11 straight games away from home.
The Grizzlies have had their ups and downs, but they are 3-2 ATS in their last 5 games as an underdog. Memphis has scored at least 112 points in 7 of its previous 10 games, suggesting it can put up enough to keep this close.
Back GRIZZLIES +4.5 (-110).
BET UNDER 228.5 (-110).
Neither side has been scoring with any consistency as of late, and on the road in a different country, neither side will have the comfort of being at home.
The Magic have scored 104 points or fewer in 2 of their last 3 games and are 1-3 O/U throughout their previous 4 contests. The Grizzlies are 1-4 O/U in their last 5 performances and 15-24 ATS on the season.
Considering those trends, take UNDER 228.5 (-115).
