Orlando Magic vs Oklahoma City Thunder Betting Prediction
This game between two struggling teams has Orlando on the back foot, as they have a bunch of injuries to contend with.
Both teams last played against the Dallas Mavericks, with the Thunder picking up a six-point overtime win, while the Magic lost by nine points. Point guard Shai-Gilgeous Alexander should have a huge game to help cover the spread, as the Magic are 0-5 on the road this season.
Pick: Oklahoma City Thunder -3 (-110)
