Philadelphia 76ers vs Orlando Magic prediction

The Philadelphia 76ers will once again be without Joel Embiid and that’s an issue as they’ve had major issues when he’s not on the court and that continued on Christmas against the Heat. The 76ers go through serious offensive droughts without their best player. The Orlando Magic are a solid team regardless, that’s also 11-3 SU at home and 19-9 ATS on the season. We’re only laying a bucket with a covering machine at home and against a team that’s without its star. Give me the Magic with a decent level of confidence.
