Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (-2.5) for Magic – 1.80.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Match Points Under 222.5 – 1.65.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Three – Pistons’ Points Under 108.5 – 1.86.
The Detroit Pistons are the worst away team in the East. Casey’s men have only seven wins on the road this season. With that kind of game, it’s hard to expect success in the upcoming meeting. Given the Pistons’ staff problems, we think the Magic will be able to beat the visitors.
The offence is not the strongest side of the teams. Detroit, who lost Grant, are doing particularly poorly. In this case, we should probably not expect a high-scoring game.
The Pistons have not scored more than 106.5 points in their last three games.
This meeting has no tournament significance. The Orlando Magic lost all chances of making the playoffs a long time ago. The Florida team is in the process of rebuilding. The management of the Magic will try to create a capable team that will fight for the highest position in the league. It’s possible that the Magic will be a completely different team next season. There are no untouchable players in Orlando right now.

The Magic hasn’t played their last few games in a good manner. They lost their last two meetings. First, the Magic lost to the Philadelphia 76ers (114-116) and then failed to put up a fight against the Brooklyn Nets (108-150).
In the game against the Nets, Cole Anthony scored 19 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists.
Detroit Pistons:
The Detroit Pistons’ losing streak now stands at four games. The last time Casey’s team won ten days ago, they defeated the Atlanta Hawks at home (113-110). Since then the Pistons haven’t been at their best on offence. For example, they scored no more than 103 points in the last three games.

Hamidou Diallo, Rodney McGruder and Jeremy Grant won’t be able to help their team in the upcoming game. Cade Cunningham’s appearance is also in doubt. The absence of these players will significantly weaken the team from Motor City.
In the game against the Heat, Jeremi Grant scored 22 points and 4 rebounds.
