Orlando Magic vs New Orleans Pelicans Pick – 3/13/2025


The Orlando Magic face off against the New Orleans Pelicans on March 13, 2025, at 8:00 PM ET at Smoothie King Center. The Magic enter this matchup with a record of 30-36, while the Pelicans sit at 18-48. Despite recent struggles, the Magic are slight favorites, with a spread of Magic -2.0 and a moneyline of -130, implying a 54% probability of victory.

Orlando's recent play has not been encouraging, having lost 27 of their last 40 games, including a disappointing 97-84 defeat to the Houston Rockets in their last outing. However, they will benefit from a few extra days off, which could provide crucial rest for their players as they look to turn their fortunes around.

On the other hand, the Pelicans are coming off a surprising victory against the LA Clippers, where they overcame an 8.0-point spread as a significant underdog, pulling off the win with a 127-120 score. This win may have injected some much-needed confidence into a struggling roster that has lost 36 of its last 50 games.

For those interested in player prop betting, Paolo Banchero's made three-point shots have emerged as a popular market, with expectations leaning toward the over at 2.5 made shots, currently priced at +125. Sharp bettors appear to be banking on this mispriced line, adding an interesting layer to this matchup.

With both teams battling through tough stretches, the Magic will look to leverage their slight edge as favorites, while the Pelicans aim to build momentum from their latest upset victory.
