Magic vs Warriors Prediction
Right when it looked like the Warriors were on shaky ground, they’ve railed off 3 straight road wins and covers. The Magic have been hit or miss all season and are 6-8 ATS on the season. The Magic could also be down two of their best players in Banchero and Suggs. I’m not excited to back the Magic on an average night, I want less to do with them if down those guys. The Warriors are feeling good and should see this as a nice opportunity to keep things rolling. Could argue the line should be steeper. I’ll lay the points with the Warriors.
