Magic vs Clippers predictionMagic vs Clippers best bet: Under 215.5 (-110)
It was a taxing night for the Orlando Magic in a 113-110 2OT loss in Phoenix. Six players logged at least 33 minutes, with Desmond Bane, Anthony Black, and Paolo Banchero playing 40+.
The Los Angeles Clippers just lost to the Lakers, where Kawhi Leonard (ankle) couldn’t finish the game. He is questionable tonight. John Collins and Darius Garland are also out for the fourth-lowest scoring team in the league.
Orlando has hit the Under in five of its last seven games, and the Under is 4-1-1 in the last six head-to-head meetings.
Magic vs Clippers same-game parlayBane is coming off a team-high 34 points against Phoenix, and he’s got a generous scoring line of 18.5 against the Clippers, considering he’s gone for 19 or more in 11 of his last 13.
It’s been good vibes for Bennedict Mathurin since being traded by Indiana. He’s topped his 22.5-point line in two of three games with L.A. With Kawhi questionable, he’s one legit offensive source for the points-hungry Clips.
