Jazz vs Magic Prediction
The Utah Jazz are getting healthier, and it’s something to watch moving forward, but I can’t get there with a team that has just 10 wins on the season and just three wins at home. The Orlando Magic seem to be getting worse as they get players back, as they’re 2-8 SU in their last 10 games and just lost to the Trail Blazers. However, the Magic deserves the benefit of the doubt. We’ve seen what the Magic have done earlier this season at full strength. I’d assume the Magic can get back to that. There are no excuses here. The Magic can’t afford to blow this game as they drop in the standings. The line is reasonable. Give me the Magic on Saturday night.
