Raptors vs Magic Prediction
The Magic snagged a strong road win over the Knicks, but we can’t ignore this start overall and now the injury report. The Magic have scoring issues as it is and begin without Banchero, and Suggs doesn’t help. It also becomes even more difficult going up against this Raptors defensive pressure. Even without Kawhi, the Raptors get after it on the defensive end. This is a game where the Magic will have issues reaching the century mark. The line is more than reasonable. Give me the Raptors and the small chalk.
