The Houston Rockets seek to extend their winning streak to eight games when they square it up with the Orlando Magic, who is coming off a huge win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, at KIA Center on Wednesday.
The Rockets have regained the No.1 spot in the Southwest Division standings after posting seven consecutive wins. Houston had lost their first three games in March before they found success again thanks to Alperen Sengun’s all-around brilliance and the return of their primary playmaker, Fred VanVleet. Meanwhile, the Cavaliers scored a massive upset win over the league-leading Cavs, 108-103, on March 16. Paolo Banchero scored 22 points on 6 for 22 shooting and Franz Wagner added 22 to power the Magic past the Cavs, who shot 41.7 percent from the field and 10 for 40 from the three-point line. The win improved Orlando’s record to 32-37, 8th in the Eastern Conference.

Our Orlando Magic vs Houston Rockets Prediction
Houston will comfortably record its 8th straight win against the Magic, whom it has beaten in 12 of its last 17 head-to-head meetings. Despite the Rockets failing to cover large handicaps against the Bulls (-8.5) and the Sixers (-16.5) in their previous two games, I am optimistic that they can cover a manageable handicap of -2.5 points against the Magic. Their history of success against Orlando and their recent winning form make them an attractive pick to cover against the Magic, who have been 0-5 ATS in their last five home games. Our betting prediction for the Houston Rockets vs. Orlandi Magic: Rockets -2.5 points
