The Orlando Magic and Philadelphia 76ers square off for the No. 7 seed in the NBA Play-In Tournament. Jason Logan has a SGP for Wednesday's game that gives the nod to the home side while pumping up these star players.
The Orlando Magic and Philadelphia 76ers fight over the East's No. 7 seed in the NBA Play-In Tournament.
With Joel Embiid out and Orlando reeling from a bellyflop in the season finale, oddsmakers expect a tight finish in Philly.
I’m leaning toward the home side but giving each team’s respective superstar their due in my NBA same game parlay for Wednesday night.
Here are my best NBA picks and predictions for Magic vs. 76ers on April 15.
Our best Magic vs 76ers SGP for April 15
The Philadelphia 76ers are short chalk for this Play-In tilt, scoring home court thanks to the Orlando Magic missing the mark in the season finale against the Celtics’ skeleton crew. Philadelphia is used to playing without Embiid and owns a 19-8 SU record as home favorites this season.
Paolo Banchero took the blame for the loss to Boston – a game in which he fired up 22 field goal attempts. I see another aggressive attack from Orlando’s standout, with game projections sitting between 23.5 and 25 points Wednesday.
Tyrese Maxey seems to find another gear when Embiid goes down. He’s become a fantastic inside-out scorer with improved shooting from deep. He knocked down three or more triples in two of the three meeting with the Magic and projection call for another 3+ day from 3-point land for Maxey.
