Orlando Magic Key Stats & Trends

His comprehensive impact is evident (21.9 PPG, 8.8 RPG, 4.9 APG, 0.7 SPG, 0.6 BPG). The Magic rely on youthful athleticism and Banchero’s creation.
Injury Report Orlando Magic

Toronto Raptors vs Orlando Magic Prediction & Best Bet
Considering the critical injuries, especially Franz Wagner’s absence for Orlando, the Raptors appear to have a distinct advantage. While Poeltl’s absence hurts Toronto’s interior, the Magic’s offense will struggle significantly without Wagner’s secondary scoring alongside Banchero. The Raptors’ balanced attack should exploit this.
Prediction: Toronto Raptors +1.5 (Spread).
Given the offensive talent on both sides, even with key injuries, the pace and scoring potential of Ingram, Barnes, Quickley, and a heavily-burdened Banchero suggest an uptempo game.
Total Points: Over 220.5.
