No Sixers player reached 20 points as the Cavs held Philly to under 25 points in each of the first 3 quarters.

F Paolo Banchero scored 33 points on 12-of-16 (75%) shooting. The Magic have won 4 straight and have held opponents under 100 points in back-to-back games.<\/p>\n The Cavaliers routed the Magic 114-98 on Jan. 26, covering as 5-point home favorites while the Under (223.5) hit.

Pass and bet on the spread and\/or total instead.<\/p>\n LEAN MAGIC +3.5 (-110).<\/p>\n The Magic have covered the spread in 3 of their last 4 games, while the Cavs sit at just 1-1-1 ATS in their last 3 outings. Cleveland’s offense has been struggling lately as the Cavs have not put up 120 or more points in any of their last 10 games. On the other side, the Magic are playing better basketball now than they have at any other point of the season.<\/p>\n This is a slight lean because the Cavs are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 matchups against Orlando.<\/p>\n BET UNDER 226.5 (-110).<\/p>\n The Under has hit in 4 straight games for Cleveland and is 35-30 for the Cavaliers this season. For Orlando, the Under is 2-1 in its last 3 overall and 2-1 in its last 3 home games. The Under has also hit in each of the last 4 matchups between these squads in Orlando and in each of the last 4 matchups overall.<\/p>\n For more sports betting picks and tips, check out SportsbookWire.com<\/a> and BetFTW<\/a>.<\/p>\n Follow SportsbookWire on Twitter\/X<\/a> and like us on Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n Access more NBA coverage:<\/p>\n HoopsHype<\/a> | Celtics Wire<\/a> | Nets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Rockets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Sixers Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Thunder Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Warriors Wire<\/a>\u00a0| LeBron Wire<\/a> |\u00a0Rookie Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0List Wire<\/a><\/p>\n Our team of savvy editors independently handpicks all recommendations.
