Portland has quietly been one of the hottest teams in the league and it demolished the Magic 101-79 on the road in the first meeting last Thursday. The Trail Blazers have won five of six with a 6-0 ATS record, including a 125-112 stunner against Milwaukee on Tuesday. Deni Avdija had a season-high 30 points for Portland, which shot 51 percent and hit 12 of 28 3-point tries. Orlando has lost eight of 10 and it covered the number just three times in that span, including a 125-119 loss at Miami on Monday. The Magic have failed to score 100 points four of their past seven games and they are 0-4 ATS their past four road games. The Blazers have covered six straight as underdogs and seven of eight overall against the Southeast Division. The Magic have lost 12 of the past 16 meetings outright. Take the Trail Blazers.

Portland at Orlando
7:00 PM Eastern
The Orlando Magic is starved for a win. The Magic went through a stretch where they were 12-1, but have since not been able to match that energy and will come into this game riding a four game losing streak. They will certainly have a chance to rise against the 15-28 Portland Trailblazers. Portland has gotten little done on the road where they are 6-16 on the season. Orlando is one of the best defending teams in the NBA at home where they allow just 102 PPG. Both these teams have injury issues, but Portland can least afford them as they are not a deep team. The Magic leads with defense at home, spurring them to a 14-8 ATS mark on home hardwood. Make the play on Orlando.
