Orlando Magic Betting Preview
The Orlando Magic missed the playoffs in the NBA last season, but not by as much as in previous years. They won 34 games last season, and looked downright respectable in the second half of the year. They will look to continue to improve this season, as their young core continues to gain experience with one another in what should be a promising 2023-24 campaign for the team from Orlando.

Orlando Magic Picks, Predictions & Betting News
Offseason Transactions
Key Additions: Joe Ingles, Goga Bitadze
Key Departures: R.J. Hampton
It was a quiet offseason for the Orlando Magic for the most part, which is a promising sign, as the team has faith in its young core. They did bring in Joe Ingles, which is an interesting move, as his experience and grit could work very nicely with the young talent they already had. As long as their team stays healthy this season, keeping things calm in the offseason will be a legitimate win for the Magic.
Positives & Negatives
The biggest positive for the Magic coming into this season is all of the promise for the young players on this roster. Paolo Banchero has legitimate MVP potential for this team in the future, while the Wagners are also players with All-Star potential. In an Eastern Conference that has seen several teams get worse going into this season, the Magic should get better.
If there is a negative for this team, there is a lack of veteran scoring for them to rely on. Having some steady hands to help Banchero and everyone else when their youth leads to some off nights would be huge. That could be the one thing that holds this team back from the postseason in the near future.
2023-24 Orlando Magic Win Total Prediction: Over 37.5 Wins
Overall, we like what this Magic team has done with its roster over the last couple of years. They have gone to a laughingstock to a team that could very well contend for a spot in the postseason right now. Look for the Magic to go over their season win total, and for them to end up at least in the play in tournament by the time the regular season is through.
