Elite Orlando defence holds the Nets
Orlando’s defence ranks fourth in rating and fifth in points conceded. While the Nets might average over 114 points per game, facing Orlando presents a tough challenge. They have gone under this line in two of their last three matches.
The Magic have been conceding under 107 points per game, successfully keeping five out of their nine opponents to below 111. Brooklyn have plenty of options on offence, but they are not as potent with Cam Thomas sidelined. This may result in Brooklyn being constrained by the Magic’s defence.
Bet 1: Brooklyn Nets under 110.5 points
Orlando needs Wagner’s outside shooting
A lack of shooting from their guards hampers Orlando’s spacing in the halfcourt. Therefore, Franz Wagner’s three-point shooting is vital to create room for Paolo Banchero and Markelle Fultz to penetrate.
Wagner leads his team with an average of 5.6 three-point attempts per game. Brooklyn concedes the second-highest number of three-point attempts per game in the Association. The German has gone over this line in six of nine games this season, and we expect him to make that seven out of 10 on Tuesday.
Bet 2: Franz Wagner over 1.5 made threes
Impressive Orlando cover the spread
Surprisingly, Brooklyn is the slight favourite in the game-winner market. Orlando is getting 2.5 points as the underdog here, which seems like a no-brainer in our Nets vs Magic tips.
Orlando outperform the Nets by five points per 100 possessions. While both have an excellent record against the spread on the season, it’s worth noting that the Magic have gone 4-2 against the spread as an underdog.
Bet 3: Orlando Magic +2.5
Magic continue record of quick starts
Just three teams surpass the Orlando Magic in first-quarter net rating. They have won three of their last four first quarters, in contrast to the Nets, who have lost their last two first quarters.
Brooklyn might have the superior depth, but Orlando’s starting five showcases bigger talent, with Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner leading the way. We’re backing the Magic to hold a lead after 12 minutes of action.
Bet 4: Orlando Magic to win the first quarter
