The current betting odds have the Magic listed as a 5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Magic haven't looked great in their games this season with their 41-41 record overall, but that record was enough to get them into this play-in tournament with home advantage too. They have looked better on their home court this year with their 22-19 home record. Meanwhile, the Hawks haven't looked great in their games this season with their 40-42 record overall, but that record still has them in 8th and in this play-in tournament due to how bad the East was this season. They haven't been a great road team either with their 19-22 road record this season. The Hawks are coming into this tournament with some momentum on their side from 3 wins in a row now, but they still haven't looked great lately as they are 5-5 in their last 10 games. The Magic have been really hot lately and have looked a lot better over the last 2 weeks. They ended their regular season with a loss to the Hawks, but they also rested a lot of players in that game since they had already clinched the home advantage in this game. Even with that loss, the Magic are still 7-3 in their last 10 games and they have found a lot of success against the Hawks this season. The Magic are also one of the best defensive teams in the NBA and that is going to be a big reason why they get past the Hawks here. The best way to place a bet here is on the Magic to cover the spread in this game.
