- #566 ORLANDO (-) over San Antonio at 7:10 PM EST
Playing well right now off three consecutive straight up wins over Philadelphia, Detroit, and Chicago, Orlando will stay hot and pick up another dub and cover when San Antonio comes to town. The Spurs enter this non-conference tilt off a SU and ATS home win over the Grizzlies last night and they'll have their hands full in this back-to-back setting.
A quick peek at the History Book shows that the Magic have held the upper hand in this series, inking a 4-0 SU and 3-1 ATS record in the last four meetings. Additionally, when playing in the comforts of home, Orlando has been worth the financial risk posting a proud 69-37 SU and 64-40-2 ATS record including an elite 63-25 SU and 59-29 ATS provided it is priced between -14 to +3.5 points. With those two parameters in play and the Magic fighting a foe that enters off a pointspread victory, this angle improves to a healthy 25-10 SU and ATS.
This is a terrible wagering spot for the Spurs. When priced as an underdog and arriving with confidence off a SU and ATS victory, San Antonio holds a poor 9-37 SU and 17-29 ATS record in its last 46 games including a dismal 7-29 SU and 12-24 ATS provided head coach Mitch Johnson and his troops are priced as a single digit pup. Also, when rolling without rest, the Spurs own a timid 11-37 SU and 18-29-1 ATS mark in their last 48 battles including a rough 4-20 SU and 6-17-1 ATS provided their opponent slips in with steam off a straight up win.
The Magic have cranked their game up a notch, inking a 12-4 SU and 11-5 ATS record in their last 16 games and they'll improve that mark matched up against a Spurs squad that is dealing with injuries to Stephon Castle and Victor Wembanyama. Take Orlando. Thanks and best of luck, Tom.
