Utah Jazz vs Orlando Magic odds, starters, injury reports, prediction
Suddenly, life is good again for Utah Jazz fans. They’ve won 3 games in a row, including a 111-85 drubbing of the impressive Golden State Warriors. It stands to reason that the Jazzmen should be able to handle the Orlando Magic in tonight’s contest.
After all, the Jazz (34-21) may have had an uneven season, but they’re still one of the best teams in the National Basketball Association. The Magic (13-43), meanwhile, are…not.
How’s that for analysis?
The Magic are smack dab in the middle of a rebuild. There are talented players on this roster, but they’re too inexperienced to have much of a chance against the Utah Jazz. Anything can happen in the National Basketball Association, but as long as the Jazz are locked in, they should walk away with a victory tonight.
Utah Jazz vs Orlando Magic odds tonight
Apparently, WynnBet agrees with that assessment.
According to WynnBet, the Jazz are 13 point favorites to win this game, and -1000 point favorites on the money line. The Magic are +650 point underdogs.
The over/under is presently set at 222.5 points.
Utah Jazz Starting Lineup
Rudy Gobert projects to be the only starter missing for Quin Snyder tonight. Jazz fans should expect a lineup of Mike Conley, Donovan Mitchell, Bojan Bogdanovic, Royce O’Neale and Udoka Azubuike (with Hassan Whiteside probably receiving the lion’s share of minutes at the 5).
Utah Jazz Injury Report
Outside of Gobert, the Jazz will be without their other Rudy G tonight. Rudy Gay is resting a knee injury.
Utah Jazz vs Orlando Magic Prediction
We’re not going to waste a lot of words here. We’re predicting a Utah Jazz victory. We don’t think there’s a ton of bias baked into that prediction either.
We’re talking about one of the 5 or 6 best teams in the NBA against one of the 2 or 3 worst. Again, anything can happen in the NBA, but this matchup doesn’t require a thorough dissection of matchups and strategies.
It’s the Jazz’s game to lose. It’ll be a massive disappointment if they do.
Prediction: Jazz 121, Magic 106
