Magic vs. Lakers Prediction:

Take the Lakers, I’m not sure how this line is so short. LA is playing fantastic basketball, while Orlando is shorthanded and on the second night of a back-to-back. It appears Davis will be available and Los Angeles can still cover this number even if he isn’t. Lakers cover at home on Thursday.
