The Magic come into this game with a slight edge, having enjoyed three days of rest since their last victory over the Philadelphia 76ers, where they secured a 104-99 win. This extra time off could be crucial, allowing Orlando’s players to recover and prepare for the challenge ahead.

Meanwhile, the Magic’s moneyline sits at +180, reflecting an implied win probability of 35%.
