Celtics vs. Magic Picks

Point Spread Pick for Celtics vs. Magic

  • Orlando Magic -4 (4 Units)

The Magic have won three of their last four games, while the Celtics have lost three of their last four games. Orlando has the edge here because they’re playing well offensively, scoring 120 points per game in their last three games, while making over 55 percent of their shots. They’ve also done a better job at the charity stripe, making over 83 percent of their free throws during that span. Their ball movement has been very good, and they rebound the ball well, grabbing more than 12 offensive rebounds per game, which will give them more scoring chances. They also cut down their turnovers, and won’t give up many easy-scoring opportunities. Even though the Celtics have one of the best defenses in the league, they’re not playing well at the moment, and have up 120 points or more in two of their last four games, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Magic. Take Orlando to cover the spread.

Over/Under Pick for Celtics vs. Magic

  • Under 226.5 (4 Units)

The Celtics average 113 points per game. They play at the 29th-fastest pace in the league, averaging 100.5 possessions per game, and they’re facing a team that gave up 110.3 points per game in their last three games. The Magic average 117 points per game. They play at the 10th-fastest pace in the league, averaging 105 possessions per game, and they’re facing a team that is giving up 109 points per game on the road. Don’t expect these teams to score enough points to push the score over the total.
