Golden State @ Orlando
Current Records: Golden State 3-5; Orlando 1-7
This Thursday, the Golden State Warriors are hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 121.25 points per contest. They will square off against the Orlando Magic at 7 p.m. ET Thursday at Amway Center. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they’ll have plenty of motivation to get the ‘W.’
Golden State came up short against the Miami Heat on Tuesday, falling 116-109. Despite the loss, the Warriors got a solid performance out of point guard Stephen Curry, who posted a triple-double on 23 points, 13 dimes, and 13 boards. That’s Chef Curry’s first triple-double of the season.
Meanwhile, Orlando came up short against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday, falling 116-108. Shooting guard Jalen Suggs wasn’t much of a difference maker for the Magic; Suggs finished with only nine points on 3-for-14 shooting and turned the ball over four times in his 28 minutes on the court.
Golden State is the favorite in this one, with an expected 8-point margin of victory. But bettors beware: they are only 2-4 against the spread when favored.
It was close but no cigar for Golden State as they fell 94-90 to Orlando when the two teams previously met in March. Can the Warriors avenge their defeat, or is history doomed to repeat itself? We’ll soon find out.
The Warriors are a big 8-point favorite against the Magic, according to the latest NBA odds.
The oddsmakers were right in line with the betting community on this one, as the game opened as an 8-point spread, and stayed right there.
