With a healthy and highly motivated Kevin Durant on the court the Brooklyn Nets look like they are getting in a groove and focusing on a deep playoff run. Tonight, they are in Orlando. Odds via PointsBet.
Brooklyn Nets vs Orlando Magic (+10.5) Total: 232.5
I am the type of NBA and basketball fan that likes to see a young team playing with confidence and improving. Now that we are coming toward the end of the regular season, we are starting to see improvements from the Orlando Magic. Orlando is 5-5 straight up and 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games.
The Brooklyn Nets are also improving as we push toward the end of the regular season but for the Nets it is not a story of a cute young team improving. For Brooklyn, the story is all about getting to the end of the rainbow and the Larry O’Brien Trophy.

These two teams have played three times this season. The Magic covered the spread in two of the three games and actually won the game outright the last time these two met. Kevin Durant has only faced the Magic once this season and that was way back on November 10th. KD had 30 that night and the Nets won that game by 33.
PointsBet opened up tonight’s game with the Nets as 9.5pt. favorites. Heavy public betting on the Nets has pushed that number to 10.5. I know Orlando is 5-1 ATS in their last six home games but I am looking past that tonight. On the season Orlando is 12-20 ATS at home. With Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant expected to play, expect Brooklyn to roll the Magic tonight.
Edge: Nets -10.5
