Premium Pick

The Orlando Magic are the fifth-best team in the Eastern Conference with a 22-16 record. They will host the 19-17 Minnesota Timberwolves, who have been a disappointment so far as they were considered a top contender in the West. They come into this one off back-to-back wins and the defense has been great. Statistically, the Wolves are the better team. You also have to consider the West has more elite teams than the East, and there is plenty of hidden value for this one. Orlando is missing three key players and will be overmatched vs. a tough road squad that is finally finding some traction. Make the play on Minnesota.
