Free Sports Game Preview and Prediction: Orlando Magic vs. New York Knicks
Monday, January 06, 2025 7:40 PM
Play: Point Spread: -11.5/-110 New York Knicks
The Magic come into this game fresh off a tough loss on Sunday against the Utah Jazz and then had to fly up to New York to get ready to take on the Knicks at Madison Square Garden. Orlando is getting completely wrecked by injuries this season and now they have Jalen Suggs and Anthony Black slated to miss this game as well. Dealing with both injuries and fatigue for this game is an extremely big ask.
The Knicks have actually dropped two games in a row, losing an understandable game against the Thunder before getting absolutely shot out of the gym by the Bulls. New York has been awesome this season and they are clearly the winners of the KAT trade and we have even seen Mikael Bridges come to life and prove he is worthy of the massive amount that was given to acquire him.
Take the Knicks here in a huge bounce back spot against a decimated and exhausted Magic team that is really going to struggle to keep up. The Knicks are 8-6-1 ATS playing at home and 6-5 ATS after a loss and the Magic are only 8-11 ATS on the season at home and 2-4 ATS on no rest.
Knicks -11.5
