Warriors at Magic: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Warriors 111, Magic 101
Money line (ML)
The WARRIORS (-185) are slight moneyline favorites in this matchup. Golden State is coming off an impressive come-from-behind win against the Heat Wednesday night. They’ve won four of their last five games and are playing better basketball. Meanwhile, the Magic have lost seven of their last 10 wins with their only victories coming against the Knicks, Kings and Bulls during that stretch. Look for the Warriors to win and win easily in this contest.

Against the spread (ATS)
Golden State (-4.5) has actually struggled against the spread on the road this season, going just 5-7 in 12 games. However, they’ve won 10 of 12 games when favored this season and should be able to win this game by double digits. Expect this game to be close for a while, but for the Warriors to eventually pull ahead late and cover. It’s worth noting that the Magic at just 6-8 against the spread while playing at home this season, as well. The Warriors (-4.5, -105) are the play.
Over/Under (O/U)
UNDER 224.5 (-110) appears to be the correct play in this game as the Magic have one of the worst offenses in the NBA. They are averaging just under 105 points per game, third-worst in the league. The Warriors have a top-10 offense, but without C James Wiseman and potentially PF Draymond Green, they could struggle to be consistent on the end of the floor, as well. Take the under here as both teams could struggle to get to 110 points.
