Orlando Magic vs Indiana Pacers prediction
The Orlando Magic had their way with the Pacers a month ago, scoring 128 points, and they’ve been kind to us all year with their 18-9 ATS record. However, the Magic are ice-cold with 4 straight losses, and they’ve failed to cover 6 of their last 9 games. The Indiana Pacers have their own issues, mainly defensively, but they’re at home, and they have the offensive firepower to break out of this funk. Near pick em spot between two cold teams, give me the home team to will itself to a much-needed win.
