Wednesday night NBA action will see the Orlando Magic visit Staples Center to take on the Los Angeles Lakers. In the first meeting between these two teams, the Lakers won 96-87. They will now look for a season sweep.
Orlando Magic
The Magic last played on Monday, winning against the Kings 114-112. They are still slightly below .500 on the season, but as of right now, they are the seventh seed in the Eastern Conference.
Offensively, the Magic are near the bottom of the league. In fact they average the lowest amount of points per game at 103.8. Their shooting percentages are also near the bottom, averaging 43.2% from the field and 33.3% from the three-point line.
Evan Fournier is the scoring leader for the Magic this season and is averaging 19.2 points per game. Nikola Vucevic is second in scoring, averaging 18.8. Then they have Aaron Gordon, who averages 13.2. Besides these three guys, the Magic have three more guys who average in double digits.
Their assists leader, DJ Augustin, is dealing with a left knee injury and is doubtful as of right now for this game.

Despite some offensive troubles, the Magic are a very stingy defensive club. They have the best scoring defense in the league, allowing an average of 103.5 points per game. However, teams still shoot 44.9% against them and 35.3% from the three-point line.
Obviously the key for Orlando is to do everything they can to slow down LeBron. Otherwise, the Magic might get run out of the building.
Los Angeles Lakers
On the other side of this matchup is the Los Angeles Lakers, who have now won nine games in a row. This streak started the game after Christmas and they have not looked back. They clearly remain as the top seed in the Western Conference, are still dealing with a few injuries.
For this game, the Lakers have Anthony Davis listed as questionable. He is dealing with a spine injury and it is unclear if he will play. Even without Davis, the Lakers put up 128 points against Cleveland in their last game, so they will likely not be slowed down.
The Lakers are averaging 113.9 points per game. This is the 7th ranked scoring offense in the NBA. They shoot the ball at 48.6% and have really just dominated the majority of their opponents.
LeBron is averaging 25.5 points per game this season. More importantly, he is averaging 10.7 assists per game, while also averaging 7.8 rebounds per game.
Defensively is actually where this Lakers team has dominated throughout the season. They have the 3rd ranked scoring defense an allow 105.1 points per game. Overall, teams shoot 43.7% from the field and 33.3% from the three-point line. Both of these percentages rank 4th in the league.
Specifically at the Staples Center, the Lakers have been even more dominant, which is hard to believe. In home games, they allow 102.6 points per game, while teams shoot 42.7% from the field and 30.7% from deep range.
NBA Betting Trends:
- Home team is 9-4 ATS in the last 13 meetings.

Free Orlando Magic vs. Los Angeles Lakers NBA Prediction:
I like the Lakers here to dominate at home. LeBron will have another huge game and the Lakers will win easily.
The Lakers are most likely going to play great defense, but their offense is the reason why I like the over.
