Raptors vs Magic Prediction

The current betting odds have the Raptors listed as a 1.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Raptors have looked good in their games this season with their 29-20 record overall which has them in the top half of the East. They have been a good road team too with their 16-9 road record this year. Meanwhile, the Magic have looked good in their games this season with their 24-22 record overall which has them in the top half of the East. They have looked good on their home court too with their 13-8 home record this season. The Magic have looked a lot better in their home games this season, but they haven't looked great lately and have been really up and down all year. They are off a road win over the Heat in their last one, but they are only 4-6 in their last 10 games and were on a losing streak before picking up that win. The Raptors have been a solid team this season and they have been the more reliable team as they have managed to keep themselves near the top of the East all year. They have been dealing with some injuries this season, but they are finally healthy again and have looked a lot better lately. They are off a bad loss to the Knicks in their last one and completely fell apart in the 2nd half after having a lead at halftime, but they are still 6-4 in their last 10 games and will be looking to bounce back. They have also been better in their road games this season so they can definitely take advantage of a Magic team that isn't fully healthy and hasn't been at their best lately. The best way to place a bet here is on the Raptors to cover the spread in this game.

Notable Quotes


“When somebody denies you, you need to go on a back door cut and you need to execute and find offence in the flow of that. You cannot force-feed somebody when he’s being completely denied. There were a couple of those situations where they were really trying to cut (Ingram) off from the team.” - Darko Rajakovic after his team’s loss against the Knicks in their game on Wednesday.


"I think it's just all those things fell into place right now. You look at the third quarter as a prime example of that. We sat down, got d-stops, we didn't gamble. We were able to go get easy baskets off our turnovers. We shared it and moved the basketball and quick decisions. That's what this team is capable of doing night in and night out." - Jamahl Mosley after his team’s win against the Heat in their game on Wednesday.
