    Magic Success vs. Minnesota

    The Magic have won six straight against the Timberwolves and eight of the last ten. Orlando is 28-16 all-time vs. Minnesota including 16-6 at home. Not only has Orlando won the last six games, they have dominated, winning them by an average of 17.8 points per game. Part of the reason for such a high average margin of victory is because of what happened last year when the Magic crushed the Timberwolves 128-86.

    Minnesota 8-3 ATS on the Road

    If you want to take a shot betting on Minnesota then the time to do it is when they are on the road. Minnesota doesn’t always win on the road but they have one of the top pointspread marks in the league at 8-3 ATS in road contests.

    Orlando 6-9 ATS at Home

    The Magic have been money burners in home games this season as they are just 6-9 ATS. The Magic just don’t win many games by large margins so they don’t always cover the spread.

    Game Notes and NBA Pick

    The Timberwolves are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 Monday games. The Timberwolves are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 road games. The Magic are 4-9-1 ATS in their last 14 Monday games. The Magic are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 home games. The Magic are 4-11-1 ATS in their last 16 vs. the Northwest. Looking at the total, the Over is 5-1 in the Timberwolves last 6 road games. The Under is 35-16-2 in Orlando’s last 53 home games. We’ll go with the trends on the side and take the Timberwolves plus the points with our NBA pick for Monday night.
