Long story short, Golden State is the vastly superior team in this matchup. The Warriors are 16-6-1 against the spread this season.
What you need to know about the Magic
Orlando lost a heartbreaker to the Houston Rockets when they met in April, and they left with a heavy heart again this past Friday. The Magic fell in a 118-116 heartbreaker. The top scorer for Orlando was point guard Cole Anthony (26 points).
The Magic are clearly rebuilding and heading towards another lottery pick in the 2022 NBA Draft. Two stats to keep an eye on in this matchup: Golden State has been holding its opponents to a field goal percentage of 42.30%, which places them first in the league. Less enviably, Orlando has only been able to knock down 42% percent of their shots, which is the third lowest field goal percentage in the league. So the cards are definitely stacked against the Magic. Orlando is 11-13 ATS this season.
