Current Form:
The Pelicans will try to win their second straight victory after blowing out the Washington Wizards 128-107 on January 9. New Orleans gave us a glimpse of their potential in its latest win over the Wizards. Zion Williamson and Trey Murphy III combined for 66 points, while Derek Queen posted a triple-double with 14 points, 16 rebounds and 12 assists. Jerimiah Fears, the other promising Pelicans rookie, scored 21 points on 9 for 15 shooting.
After edging the Brooklyn Nets at the buzzer on January 7, the Magic suffered a lopsided loss to the Philadelphia 76ers 91-103. Paolo Banchero, who hit the game-winner against the Nets, scored only 14 points on 33 percent field goal shooting. Desmond Bane led the way with 23 points and Anthony Black added 21 for the Magic, who shot just 41 percent from the field.

Our New Orleans Pelicans vs Orlando Magic Prediction
Fearless Forecast: The Magic outlast the Pelicans 117-115
Reasoning: Expect the Magic to rebound from an ugly performance against the Sixers. This team hasn’t won or lost two games in a row since early December. Despite the up-and-down pattern, Orlando is a solid 10-4 SU in its last 14 games at home. As for the Pelicans, they are 1-5 against the spread in their last six games, but they displayed their scary potential in the win over the Wiz. New Orleans is putting together a promising young squad featuring Zion Williamson, Trey Murphy, Derek Queen, and Jeremiah Fears. Any one of them can explode anytime and fuel the Pelicans’ offense. In the end, I still believe the Magic will grind out a tough home win, but not before overcoming a testy challenge from the visiting team.
Our betting prediction for the Orlando Magic vs. the New Orleans Pelicans: The Pelicans +7.5 points
