Betting on Washington Wizards
- Season record: 15-21
- BetMGM Spread: (To be defined)
- BetMGM Moneyline: (To be defined)
- BetMGM Over/Under: (To be defined)
The Washington Wizards are getting back on track. They have now won three consecutive victories and are on the verge of equaling their best streak of the season of four games unbeaten.
Last game the level of Rui Hachimura who scored 30 points and did it coming off the bench, was surprising. He showed that he can help Kristaps Porzingis, who was already running out of gas, although he is still a determining factor in the team’s game.
They are going to play away where they have bad numbers, having won just two of their last six games. Against Orlando they will begin a four-game series away from home. Will they be able to score their fourth victory? It looks complicated because their level is declining outside of Washington.
Betting on the Orlando Magic
- Season record: 15-21
- BetMGM Spread: (To be defined)
- BetMGM Moneyline: (To be defined)
- BetMGM Over/Under: (To be defined)
They had come out of the bottom of the East after a streak of 6 consecutive victories, they were surprising everyone because they had put together one of the best streaks in the NBA, but the Hawks put an end to their positive streak.
Anyway, they haven’t looked too bad in the following games. They register two wins in the last 5 games, although they have already lost two in a row. They return home, where they don’t have the best numbers either, but they have won five of their last six, being highly respected in Orlando.
Jalen Suggs who is an important part of the team and contributes about 12.4 points per game and 5.4 assists will be missing this game due to an injury. It is not so sensitive, but for the level of the Magic, it is important to have him. Add to this the suspension of Moritz Wagner, Cole Anthony, R.J. Hampton, Mo Bamba, Gary Harris and Wendell Carter Jr. and even others, for the altercation that occurred in their last game against the Pistons.
JefeBet Prediction
In the league standings, one is above the other. However, taking into account the current moment, we believe that Washington will take the victory and will continue its excellent streak that it will try to extend much longer. Orlando will put up a good fight, but they come into this game with a negative run and that will affect them, in addition to the suspensions they have to deal with.
Washington knows that winning, may allow them to reach the Raptors, who are close behind in the standings. Winning is essential, besides, if they lose, Orlando is the one that gets closer and would delay them much more in their quest to qualify for the playoffs.
Prediction: Washington Wizards Moneyline.
