Magic looking to finish strong
The Orlando Magic haven’t had the season they hoped for, even though people expected them to struggle. However, Orlando will come into this one after two impressive wins as they were able to take down the Golden State Warriors in their most recent game.
They ended up beating the Warriors by four points as they had multiple contributions of different types on the floor. Wendell Carter Jr. ended up leading the way with 19 points and eight rebounds in the victory.
On the season, Orlando has the 28th ranked net rating, the 29th ranked offensive rating, and the 18th ranked defensive rating.
OKC looking for a short-handed win
The Oklahoma City Thunder will come into this one with multiple injuries to some key players. Josh Giddey, Lu Dort and a few others will not be playing for the Thunder in this contest. Oklahoma City will come into this one after not winning a game in its last 10.
They are currently on a 10-game losing streak, including their most recent loss to the Boston Celtics. They ended up losing 130-123, despite Tre Mann scoring 35 points.
On the season, Oklahoma City has the 27th ranked net rating, the 30th ranked offensive rating, and the 15th ranked defensive rating.

Free NBA Picks — Magic vs Thunder
For this game, I’m going to go with the Orlando Magic to win outright. I’m always skeptical of putting money on the Orlando Magic, but considering the Thunder are going to lose some of their best players, I think Orlando could wriggle out of this one.
I also like the UNDER on this one considering both teams are dealing with some injuries and have struggled to score basketball at times this year.
