Magic vs Jazz Prediction

The Magic should win this game comfortably, but that should’ve been the case a lot this season, and it hasn’t happened. The Magic have underachieved for much of the season and are 20-30 ATS. While the Jazz don’t win much, they’re a profitable 28-24 ATS on the season. The Jazz and Magic met back in December, and the game went into overtime. The Jazz are also getting healthier. We’ve made money on the Jazz this season. I don’t trust the Magic in big favorite spots. Give me the points.
