The Magic (37-18, 27-25-3 ATS) are 8-2 in their last 10 games. They have been nearly as good against the spread in that span, however, going a lacklustre 5-4-1 ATS over the same stretch. Orlando is 5-5 ATS in its last 10 home games.
Team records:
Dallas: 33-21 SU, 22-32 ATS
Orlando: 37-18 SU, 27-25-3 ATS
Matchup: Mavs at Magic
Time: 8:00 p.m. ET
Venue: Amway Arena
Spread: Orlando -5.5
Over/Under: 201
Dallas (33-21, 22-32 ATS) hasn’t been playing well straight up or against the spread. The Mavericks are 3-6 straight up in their last nine games. On NBA odds, Dallas has been absolutely brutal; the team is 2-8 ATS in its last 10 games. Caron Butler was brought in at the trade deadline and has dropped 14.0 points per game in his first two outings as a Maverick.
The past six meetings between Orlando and Dallas have been quite close, with each team winning three games against the spread (although Dallas is 5-1 straight up in that span).
THE PICK
This year the Magic are certainly the superior team, especially right now. Even though Orlando has been soft against NBA odds recently, the Mavericks have been an absolute disaster. Bet on the Magic.
