Magic vs Hawks prediction
Magic vs Hawks best bet: Hawks moneyline (-135)
The Atlanta Hawks' nine-game win streak has been fueled by a defense allowing just 104 points per game, which is No. 2 in the NBA.
Four times during this run, they’ve held an opponent to less than 100 points.
The Orlando Magic have been far more offensive-minded during their seven-game fun run, averaging 125 points per game, the third-most in the league, and almost 10 points better than their season average.
Against a top-flight defense, though, they need more offensive table-setters, and Franz Wagner is out. That’s enough to tilt the court Atlanta’s way.
