Free Orlando Magic vs. Boston Celtics NBA Prediction:
All five Magic starters (plus Cole Anthony) scored in double-figures on Friday. Boston had just three starters reach that mark but their bench was superior with a trio of players scoring in double-digits led by Payton Pritchard who scored 21 including six of seven from deep.
Boston’s reserves won the night outscoring Orlando’s bench 47-33. Both clubs shot over 40 percent from the perimeter but the difference in the match came down to activity and energy. Case in point, the Celts created 21 turnovers leading to 26 points and forced 14 steals.
Although the Magic can bring the defensive intensity until the Celts lose at home it’s best to ride the momentum wave.
