Magic vs Hawks prediction
Magic vs Hawks best bet: Under 228 (-110)
The Atlanta Hawks are two games into what will be an extended stay without Trae Young, and the reviews are mixed.
They sliced and diced the Indiana Pacers 128-106, but they're down their own star in Tyrese Haliburton.
They followed that up with an ugly 117-109 loss in Cleveland. While they shot 50% from the field, the Hawks mustered only a 6-for-23 effort from 3-point range, a 26.1% clip.
Perhaps even more troubling were the 22 turnovers, which Cleveland converted into 33 points.
After a 1-4 start to the year, the Orlando Magic have started looking like the defensive menace from a year ago that earned a playoff berth.
They blew out the Hornets 123-107 and followed that up with a 125-94 shutdown of the Washington Wizards.
Orlando limited Washington to 39.8% shooting from the field, forced 19 turnovers, and crushed them on the glass 53-40, limiting a team to sub-100 points for the first time this season.
This will be the second of four meetings between these teams, with Atlanta taking the first meeting 111-107. That’s now the seventh time in nine games these teams have gone Under the total. Expect that to continue tonight.
Magic vs Hawks same-game parlay
Magic star Paolo Banchero is coming off a 28-point, 11-rebound outing in the win over the Wizards. It’s now seven of eight games this year that he’s hit the 20-point plateau.
He’s scored 25 points in a game twice this season but missed the Over on three other occasions by a single bucket. For a road-weary team, look for the Magic’s best player to carry them home in Atlanta.
Nickeil Alexander-Walker has done just fine stepping in for Young, scoring 21 points against Indy and 16 against Cleveland. From a reserve to a starter, look for the beat to go on for NAW.

Our "from downtown" SGP: Kristaps bounces back, Bane literally rebounds
Kristaps Porzingis has played in just five games for the Hawks, and he’s hit his first rough patch shooting the moneyball, going 1-for-7 from deep in his last two games.
This, after opening his year hitting 9-for-20 from distance over his first three games. Look for him to find his footing without Young and start connecting again from 3-point range.
Despite coming up empty on the boards in his last game, Desmond Bane had recorded at least four rebounds in five of his first six games.
