Orlando Magic vs LA Clippers Preview
Despite the loss on Monday, the Magic have got to be pretty pleased with their start of the season. Two wins over the Rockets and Trail Blazers, and a close loss to the Lakers. The Magic led at halftime by four, before trailing by 1 at the end of three. Markelle Fultz anchored the offense with 14 points in the game.
In the season, Frank Wagner is the top scorer on the team. He is scoring just shy of 20 points per game, while Fultz is adding 10.7 per game. Gary Harris has been the sharpshooter thus far for the Magic, with 63.2% shooting, while scoring 10.3 points per game. Orlando is looking to improve for the fourth straight season, as last season they went 34-48.
The Magic will continue their road trip on Thursday at the Jazz, before heading home to host the Lakers, Mavericks, Hawks, and Bucks.
Clipper Nation’s New Dream Team
The big news for the Clippers is the addition of James Harden. Harden was acquired early Tuesday morning from Philadelphia. He will join Kawhi Leonard, Paul George and Russell Westbrook in a rotation full of scoring. The trade comes at a cost, as Los Angeles had to send Marcus Morris, Robert Covington, Nic Batum, and KT Martin, along with some draft capital to Philadelphia.
It is not likely Harden will play in this game, which will leave the Rockets shorthanded. Terance Mann is also expected to not play as well. That will give more time and opportunity to score for the stars Paul George and Kawhi Leonard to score more. Those two are combining for more than 50 points per game. With Harden and Tucker out, the Clippers injury report will be full.
Los Angeles will play this game, and then take on the Lakers in the first of the rivalry tomorrow night. After that, the Clippers are off until Monday when they start a three-game road trip with stops at the Knicks, Nets, and Mavericks.
Orlando Magic vs LA Clippers Picks and Prediction
This will be an interesting game. A tired Orlando team against a short-handed Clippers team. We say short-handed, but the Clippers still have plenty of talent on that squad. The Orlando Magic roster, also – while we say tired, are a pretty young NBA team. In the end, though, the Clippers at home should be the bet to make.
Orlando hangs for a while, but in the end the veteran presence gets the job done and wins this game. The final bet for this game is the Los Angeles Clippers -6.5 over the Orlando Magic. We are looking forward to this National Basketball Association affair on Halloween Night from Los Angeles. Best of luck!
- NBA Pick: Clippers -6.5 over the Orlando Magic.
