Orlando Magic (38-31) and Los Angeles Lakers (45-25) will clash on Saturday night at the Kia Center. The Magic will look to win and clinch a play-in spot as the playoff race in the Eastern Conference heats up. They’re just a game behind the fifth-placed Raptors and 2.5 games behind the tenth-placed Hornets. The Magic didn’t help their playoff case recently after going on a three-game slide, something they’ll want to rectify against the Lakers.
The Lakers, meanwhile, are on a tear in the Western Conference, sitting in third place, 10 games behind the Thunder. The visitors, who have already clinched their play-in position, will want to win and solidify their claim for a playoff spot in the conference. JJ Redick’s men will also be motivated to continue with their eight-game winning streak, with their latest assignment ending in a 126-134 demolition of Miami Heat.

Our Orlando Magic vs Los Angeles Lakers Prediction
LA Lakers will be the -155 betting favorites, thanks to their red-hot form and team depth. Doncic has been unplayable recently, with the Slovenian bagging 60 points and 7 rebounds against Miami Heat. LeBron James and Austin Reaves have also been instrumental this season, though the latter will be subject to a game-time decision due to a hip injury. The Magic, on the other hand, will want to stop their three-game slide by all means possible. They’ve been solid at home, winning four of their last five assignments while scoring an average of 122.6 points. The Magic also defeated the Lakers in their last four meetings. Still, we think the in-form Lakers will edge it and cover the -2.5 spread.
Our prediction for Orlando Magic vs LA Lakers: Over 233.5 points.
