Jazz vs. Magic Prediction

The Magic are still missing Jalen Suggs, Jonathan Isaac, Noah Penda, and Paolo Banchero, while the Jazz have ruled out Jaren Jackson Jr. and Jusuf Nurkic, with Lauri Markkanen and Keyonte George both questionable.

The Jazz looked like a different team in the fourth quarter of last night’s defeat, and they will pull off the upset if they can replicate that effort. However, those moments have been few and far between for the Jazz, so I am sticking with the slightly more reliable Magic to get the win despite missing some key players.

Orlando Magic Betting Preview

The Orlando Magic have really been struggling as they’ve lost seven of their first 10 games, but they will be breathing a sigh of relief after snapping a four-game slide with a 107-100 road win over the Kings last night. Franz Wagner led the team with 33 points, seven rebounds and seven assists; Anthony Black added 26 points with seven rebounds and five assists, while Desmond Bane chipped in with 15 points, six rebounds and four assists.

As a team, the Magic shot 44 percent from the field and 10 of 37 from the 3-point line as they set the tone with 34 points in the first quarter to open up an early 14-point lead, but they allowed the Kings back into the contest and didn’t regain control until they went on a pivotal 9-0 run in the third quarter.

Utah Jazz Betting Preview

Meanwhile, the Utah Jazz have been ice-cold as they’ve lost 10 of their first 11 games, and they are now on a nine-game slide after falling short to the Heat in a 115-109 loss last night. Darryn Peterson led the team with 25 points, Ace Bailey added 23 points on 10-for-15 shooting, while Isaiah Collier chipped in with 17 points and five assists off the bench.

As a team, the Jazz shot 49 percent from the field and 13 of 33 from the 3-point line as they struggled for most of the contest and trailed by as many as 23 points before they went on an 18-4 run in the fourth quarter to make things interesting at the end.
