Play: Orlando +11.5 -110
Time: 7:30 p.m. ET
Reasoning: This is the most points the Magic have been spotted in a game this season. This is a good matchup for them because they shoot well (46.5%) and Toronto is allowing opponents to shooting 46.0%. Orlando is shooting 37.1% on threes and the Raptors are below average defending shots behind the arc. Toronto also is getting outrebounded by 3.5 per game. In the first meeting (on Nov. 1), the Magic led by eight in the third quarter, but the Raptors attempted 24 more free throws and they were able to pull away. Since that game Orlando is 3-1 ATS. In that first meeting Magic rookie Elfrid Payton scored 16 and dished out nine assists. Orlando won't have Victor Oladipo until next month, but it is getting solid performances from Tobias Harris and Evan Fornier (combined average of 33 points). And C Nikola Vucevic is averaging 18.6 points and 12.3 boards and he has five double-doubles in seven games.
Record: 208-156-8 (57.1%)
Bankroll: +120.78%
