New Orleans Pelicans vs. Orlando Magic Betting Preview

Defensive Challenges Await the New Orleans Pelicans

The New Orleans Pelicans are looking to get in the win column before the end of the preseason. The Pelicans are led by Brandon Ingram and Zion Williamson, who both have been playing in the preseason. Williams scored 16 in the most recent loss in 24 minutes played. The question marks with Williams are always his ability to stay off the NBA Injury Report.

Ingram, who is 26, has also played in all three preseason games, as he has been ramping up his minutes, with 16 in the opener and 25 in the latest game.

Looking at the NBA stats, the leading scorers for the Pelicans in their first three games have been Ingram, C.J. McCollum, and Jordan Hawkins. The Pelicans are led by head coach Willie Green, who was an assistant with the Warriors and Suns before being hired as the head coach in 2021.

The Pelicans will open their season on the road at the Memphis Grizzlies. Following that, the Pelicans have back-to-back home games against the Knicks and Warriors. New Orleans Pelicans games should be fun, but they are going to have to figure things out on the defensive end to win games.

Orlando’s Preseason Approach

The Orlando Magic, in their most recent preseason win, saw Franz Wagner lead the way with 18 points in 18 minutes. Mo Wagner also added 14 in the game. The Magic did not play a player more than 19 minutes in the game. The first time these two NBA  teams played, Wendall Carter led the way with 18 points, while Cole Anthony pitched in 13.

The Magic are hoping for a big season from their 20-year-old from Duke. Paolo Banchero had a solid rookie season and will look to add it up to an All-star type 2023-2024 season. Markelle Fultz is another guy who came onto his own a season ago as one of the starting guards.

Orlando starts the season at home against the Houston Rockets. After that, the Magic will go on the road for four straight games out West. The Magic will play at Portland, the Lakers, Clippers and Jazz. The Orlando Magic roster continues to improve, but it is still pretty young and inexperienced, so it could be a challenge to compete again.

New Orleans Pelicans vs. Orlando Magic Picks and Prediction

The Pelicans certainly would like to get back on track with a win here. New Orleans has yet to win, but it certainly has the talent to get some wins. Look for the Pelicans to ramp up some of their top guys’ minutes and come away with the win in this game.

When looking at the Pelicans vs Magic odds, the final bet for this game is the New Orleans Pelicans -1 over the Orlando Magic. We expect this to be a fun game, but New Orleans wins the game.
