Jazz vs Magic Prediction, Odds, Picks and Player Prop Pick

The Utah Jazz-Orlando Magic game headlines the NBA betting card on Thursday night.

Orlando has played some of its best basketball recently, which is why it’s favored to beat the incoming Western Conference opponent.

The Jazz have been going in the opposite direction, which isn’t inspiring confidence with bettors.

Jazz vs Magic Over/Under Pick: Over 226

The sportsbook has a generous line of 226 points, and we’re backing the over.

There are plenty of points in the Jazz and Magic, and the Jazz have been allowing big totals over the last few weeks.

They recently allowed totals of 138, 140 and 124 points, so the Magic should have little problem finding their best offense.

Orlando’s defense is much better, but because of Utah’s poor defense, we predict the home side scoring at least 117 points.

Jazz vs Magic ATS Pick: Magic -6

There is also good value with NBA odds for the Magic -6.

They have been playing excellent basketball, and there isn’t much going right for the Jazz, who are terrible on the road.

The Magic boast an 18-8 ATS home record, which looks good against the Jazz’ 13-17 ATS road mark.

Paulo Banchero is one of the more promising youngsters in the NBA, and he has been going about his business quietly.

We respect the shooting ability of Lauri Markkanen for the Jazz, but he doesn’t have many consistent scorers alongside him. That’s enough to see the Magic win and cover the betting online spread.

Paolo Banchero should have plenty of scoring opportunities against a weak Jazz defense, so we’re picking him to score over 21½ points.

Sport betting markets have a favorable line for bettors, and the power forward could go close to scoring 30.

We think he’s in for a big night, and given the totals the Jazz have been giving up lately, he could help the Magic score big.
