Magic at Hawks picks and predictionsPrediction

Magic 116, Hawks 110

PASS.

The Magic (-160) are back to playing like the team many expected them to be. That said, they are a bit too expensive to take here.

BET MAGIC -3.5 (-110).

The Magic have covered in 2 straight games and are 1-1 ATS as a favorite of 5 or fewer. Orlando has been on a torrid pace offensively as well, scoring at least 116 points in 4 straight games.

The Hawks got a few easy wins over the Indiana Pacers and Brooklyn Nets, but they came back to reality with an 8-point loss to Cleveland. They are 1-2 ATS as an underdog and 0-1 ATS as a home underdog. Atlanta has had major issues scoring the ball and ranks 25th in offensive rating. Without Young, it might struggle to keep up.

Take MAGIC -3.5 (-110).

BET UNDER 229.5 (-110).

Both teams rank in the top half of the league in defensive rating, and in the bottom half of the league in offensive rating. On top of that, both are trending toward the Under at 3-4 O/U on the year.

Orlando has gone Under in 2 straight, allowing 107 or fewer in both games, while the Hawks are 1-2 O/U in their last 3 contests. Considering those trends, take UNDER 229.5 (-110).
