Boston Celtics vs Orlando Magic Prediction

The Celtics should have the edge at home with the rest advantage, but they’ve had issues stringing together wins, and they’re not a team I’m excited to back in the favorite role. The Magic played last night and are still down two of their better players, but they’ve won 5 of their last 6 games and have covered 7 of their last 10 games. I’m not sure how long it will continue, but the Magic are cashing tickets out of nowhere. I’ll take a shot with the free buckets.
