Free Boston Celtics vs. Orlando Magic NBA Prediction:
Friday, January 24th, finds Eastern Conference rivals the Boston Celtics facing the Orlando Magic for the first time this season.
Last season, the teams played three times with the Orlando Magic sweeping the series. The Celtics hold the all-time record having bested the Magic in 63 of their 114 matches
Boston Celtics
The Celtics followed up their win over the Lakers with a resounding victory over the previously red hot Grizzlies winning 119-95.
Boston is embroiled in the fight to gain the East’s second seed currently ranking fourth behind the Heat and Raptors and with the 76ers and Pacers breathing down their neck.

In the victory over the Grizzlies, the Celtics displayed prowess on both sides of the hardwood holding Memphis under 100 points while putting up 119.
Boston served up balanced scoring with six players collecting double-figures. Jayson Tatum led the way with 23 points but left the game with a groin strain.
The quintet of Daniel Theis (14), Enes Kanter (13), Marcus Smart (12), Gordon Hayward (12), and Brad Wannamaker (10) were the other double-digit contributors.
Kemba Walker is the team leader in scoring (22.7) and assists (5.0) while Jayson Tatum leads rebounding (6.9) and steals (1.4). Gordon Hayward tops field goal percent (51.0%), and Daniel Theis is the blocks (1.5) leader.
The Celtics are navigating injuries specifically with Jaylen Brown and Tatum who’ve been in and out of the lineup. Brown’s ankle injury sidelined him Wednesday.
Enes Kanter also injured his foot in the Memphis match. All three are questionable for Friday in Orlando.
Robert Williams III (bone edema, hip) is out until late January.
Orlando Magic
With Steven Adams and Terrance Ferguson out for the Thunder on Wednesday, the Magic had a marked advantage defensively but were unable to capitalize.
The Thunder guard trio lit them up. Chris Paul (19 points), Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (18 points, 12 rebounds) and particularly Dennis Schroder (31 points, nine assists) proved to be too much to stop as the Magic lost 114-120.
Nikola Vucevic was stellar registering a double-double of 25 points and 11 rebounds. He was joined by Terrence Ross who scored a team-high 26 points connecting on five 3-pointers.
Michael Carter-Williams (15), Aaron Gordon (14), Evan Fournier (12) and Markelle Fultz (11) were the other double-figure contributors.
The Magic team leaders are Evan Fournier for scoring (18.9) and field goal percentage (47.2%). DJ Augustine tops assists (4.7), Aaron Gordon leads rebounding (7.2), Jonathan Isaac for blocks (2.4) and Markelle Fultz in steals (1.2).
DJ Augustin will be out of the lineup for up to four weeks (mid-February) with irritation to his knee bone.
Jonathan Isaac suffered a posterior lateral corner injury and a medial bone contusion to his left knee which the team initially said would keep him out up to 10 weeks but have since stated he’ll miss the remainder of the season.
Al-Farouq Aminu is healing from a torn meniscus which will keep him off the court until mid-April.
NBA Betting Trends:
- The Celtics are 6-4 ATS in their last 10
- The teams are 5-5 in last 10 head to head
- Over Under is 5-5 in team’s last 10 head to head matchups
Free Boston Celtics vs. Orlando Magic NBA Prediction:
The Celtics play much better on their home court although they have a winning road record (11-9) while the Magic are much better at home (13-9).
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: Magic -1
If both Brown and Tatum both can’t go it favors the Magic who is a tough-nosed defensive crew and motivated for the win to retain their seeding in the East.
