The Magic are coming into this game with a 23-34 record overall and they are 9-19 in their road games this season where they will be in this game. They still have a game against the Chicago Bulls on Monday night that needs to be played first as this is the 2nd leg of a back-to-back for them on Tuesday.

Markelle Fultz led the team in points in that game with 17 while Paolo Banchero was next on the team with 16 points. Cole Anthony led the team in assists in that game with 6 while Paolo Banchero led the team in rebounds with 13. They were 42.5% from the field, 37.9% from 3-point range, and 78.3% from the free throw line with their shots in that game. Their offense is averaging 111.1 PPG and their defense is allowing their opponents to average 113.9 PPG against them.

The Raptors are coming into this game with a 27-31 record overall and they are 17-13 in their home games this season where they will be in this game.

The Raptors have an ATS record of 28-30 this season and their O/U record is 33-25.

The current betting odds have the Raptors listed as a 6 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Raptors haven't been that great this year with their losing 27-31 record overall but they have been a better home team and are 17-13 in their home games this season. The Magic haven't been having a good season either and they have been a much worse team than the Raptors with a 23-34 record overall. They have also been terrible in their road games this year with a 9-19 road record and even though they have been playing a lot better in their games lately, most of their wins are still coming in their home games. The Raptors play their best on their home court and they are going to have some momentum from a close win over the Pistons the other night. The Raptors will also have the advantage of rest for this game as the Magic are on a back-to-back here and will be tired in this game. The best way to place a bet here is on the Raptors to cover the spread in this game.
