Thursday, December 21st finds the Orlando Magic facing the Milwaukee Bucks for the second time this season. In the initial meeting, the Magic won 112-97.
Orlando is completing a back-to-back set having lost 106-115 to the Heat on Wednesday while the Bucks last played Tuesday pounding the Spurs 132-119.
Season Series
Last season the Bucks swept Orlando winning all three of their regular-season contests and also hold the all-time record between the clubs with 71 victories in 125 matches versus the Magic.
Orlando Magic
After beginning the season on a terror winning 14 of their first 19 matches the Magic have come back down to earth. Since that productive stretch, the Magic have just two wins in their last seven games.
Those two wins came against the lowly Pistons and an undermanned Cavaliers squad.
That’s not to say Orlando can’t get back on track but they may need to consider making a trade to help specifically on the offensive end.
Magic Stats
Through six games, the Magic ranks tied for 15th offensively (113.7) and are fourth defensively (109.3) while possessing the seventh-rated net differential of plus +4.4 through 12 matches.
Orlando is one of the better bets against the spread possessing a 17-9 record through 26 games.
Magic Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Markelle Fultz, PG (questionable — knee)
- Joe Ingles, SG (questionable — ankle)
- Kevon Harris, SG (questionable— disiplinary)
Milwaukee Bucks
Although the new roster is still a work in progress the Bucks are rolling having won five games in a row. Damian Lillard is fitting in and finding a rhythm with Giannis Antetokounmpo and his new teammates, specifically on the offensive end.
The issue for the Bucks is they have major problems and a lack of identity on the defensive side of the hardwood.
Granted, losing Jrue Holiday has impacted the team but they still have Giannis, Brook Lopez and Khris Middleton who won the title and were part of the robust defense the Bucks showcased the past several seasons.
Bucks Stats
Milwaukee’s key categories find them ranked third offensively (119.2), and 21st defensively (115.3) with a net differential of plus +3.8 which ranks eighth overall.
Betting on the Bucks against the spread is a tricky proposition given their 12-15 record in that category.
Bucks Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Jae Crowder, SF (OUT indefinitely — groin)
