Game Prediction

At full strength, the New Orleans Pelicans would likely easily be able to win this game. However, that is not the case. The Pelicans have shown the ability to adapt. But for today, it’s hard to see them beat a quality Magic team. Even though this game is being played in New Orleans, I still like the road team today. Therefore, I’m picking the Orlando Magic to not only cover the spread but also win outright.
