Orlando at Washington

Premium Pick

Orlando has been feast or famine lately. Now it's time for the Magic to get back on track if it wants a playoff spot after losing at Memphis on Sunday. Washington, of course, is going nowhere and has lost two of its last three games although it does come off a 121-115 win against Sacramento on Monday. The Magic is in double-revenge after losing the last two meetings after beating the Wizards in early November. Orlando has the edge on defense, allowing opponents a .454 field goal percentage compared to .476 for Washington. However, it was Orlando's poor shooting that was the major factor in the loss to the Grizzlies as the Magic shot only 35.6 percent with Nikola Vucevic scoring a team-leading 26 points in a losing cause. Look for Orlando to bounce back with a better performance offensively tonight, so take the points with the Magic.
