Utah Jazz vs Orlando Magic prediction

The Utah Jazz have watched their season free-fall over the last couple of weeks as the defense has taken a step back, and they’ve failed to cover 7 of their last 10 games. The Orlando Magic are 19-8 SU at home and 38-21 ATS on the season overall. No team in the NBA has covered more games than the Magic. If it’s not broken, don’t fix it. Give me the Magic and the reasonable line. I want nothing to do with the Jazz in their current form and the Magic have been a team to blindly back all yeae with the cosntant covers.
