The road Hawks come into this one off a 104-101 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. They entered that one as 3-point road underdogs.
The home Magic come into this one off a 109-102 loss to the Brooklyn Nets. They entered that one as 12-point road underdogs.
On the year, Atlanta is 8-12-1 against the spread.
Orlando is 9-11-1 ATS.
These two teams have faced off once this season way back on Oct. 21, a 108-98 win for the home Hawks.
Atlanta Hawks
The Hawks enter Wednesday in the middle of a three-game skid. They’re eighth in the Eastern Conference and have struggled to maximize their star backcourt in Trae Young and Dejounte Murray through the season’s unofficial quarter mark.
This is due to a substantial lack in creativity on the offensive end. The pair can still be (and has shown flashes of being) a dynamic duo that complements each other’s strengths, but as the pair struggles to play off each other—and off John Collins—the team at large has become tough to trust.
On the year, Atlanta is scoring 113.4 points per contest, which puts the team in 13th.
In terms of advanced stats, the Hawks score 108.4 points per 100 possessions. That number places them in 21st, which is more reflective of their production than the raw stats.
Defensively, this groups allows 113.8 points per night, putting them in 16th so far this season.
Looking at Defensive Efficiency, Atlanta gives up 109.1 points per 100 possessions—a number that ranks 12th through about 25 percent of the regular season.
As of this writing, the Hawks list Bogdan Bogdanovic as OUT and Jalen Johnson as Day-to-Day (doubtful).
Orlando Magic
On the injury report for the Magic, they list Mo Bamba as Day-to-Day with a back injury. The team also has a slew of players OUT, including Jalen Suggs, Chuma Okeke, Wendell Carter, Jr. and, per usual, Jonathan Isaac.
The good news is that Markelle Fultz has officially been cleared to make his season debut for the Magic on Wednesday. I wouldn’t expect him to be a huge difference-maker as he gets into game condition and learns how to play within the team’s re-tooled rotation.
Statistically, on the year, the Magic are scoring 108.3 points per game. That number puts them in 29th across the NBA so far this season—a number ahead of only the dead last LA Clippers.
Looking at the advanced stats, they’re scoring 107.3 points per 100 possessions—a number that puts them in 24th.
Defensively, Orlando is giving up 113.9 points per night, which ranks 17th in the NBA.
Looking at Defensive Efficiency, the Magic give up 111.9 points per 100 possessions, putting them in 25th across the Association.

Free Atlanta Hawks vs. Orlando Magic NBA Prediction:
This matchup features two of the recently coldest teams in the NBA. Sorry, Magic and Hawks fans. It’s just the truth.
But on Wednesday night, something has to give in Orlando.
Unfortunately for the home Magic—if they’re trying to win at all during the ultimate Tank for Victor Wembanyama—the Hawks are built to bounce back while they’re built to bounce ping-pong balls in the 2023 draft lottery.
I’m picking the Hawks on the road SU, and I’ve got them to cover -5.5 when it’s all said and done.
