Betting on the Houston Rockets
- Regular Season Record: 1-9
- BetMGM Spread: +4.5
- Moneyline from BetMGM: +155
- Over/Under de BetMGM: 225.5
The Houston Rockets finished last NBA season with the worst record in the entire league (20-62) and seem intent on repeating that unwanted distinction as they come into today having the worst record in both conferences, with just one win in ten games, and failed to win any of their last six games.
Lack of scoring has been the Rockets’ main problem this season, as they are the last team in terms of percentage of shots converted (41.8 %).This means that they do not take full advantage of being the one that averages more offensive rebounds per game, with a very high 14.1.
Betting on the Orlando Magic
- Regular Season Record: 2-8
- Unibet Spread: -5
- Moneyline from Unibet: -182
- Over/Under de Unibet: 225.5
The Orlando Magic can’t scoff much at the visiting team’s situation either, as the Florida team, which finished with the NBA’s second-worst record in 2021/22 (22-60) is also currently in the basement of its conference at the moment, and all indications are that it will once again struggle in the bottom of the conference.
Nevertheless, Magic have seen some good things in their recent performances, winning at home against the Golden State Warriors a few days ago, and in their last game forced an overtime against the Sacramento Kings to eventually fall 126-123, in what was rookie Paolo Banchero’s best performance to date (33 points, 16 rebounds, 4 assists), who is expected to once again be the team’s focal point.
JefeBet Prediction
Neither of these two teams have given much reason to trust them in this NBA season, but judging by current events and home-field advantage, it looks like the Orlando Magic are the ones who could come away with the win in this clash.
The Rockets have not won a game on the road so far this season, and three of the last four saw them allow at least 120 points and be outscored by at least 8 points.
The Magic are not exactly an offensive juggernaut, but at home they are averaging 121.5 points per game, and this could tip the scales in their favor against an offense as poor as their opponent’s.
Prediction: Orlando Magic Spread (HOU 107 – ORL 114)
