Mavericks vs Magic

Two teams collide with contrasting streaks on the line

Dallas Mavericks

Champ (35-37) VS Stuff the Magic Dragon (34-38)

Mar 27, 2025 | 19:00 ET | Amway Center

Orlando Magic
Moneyline Pick: Orlando (-240) - B

Paolo Banchero is set to lead the Orlando Magic, who enter this contest on a three-game win streak that has propelled them firmly into the late-season conversation. In contrast, Dallas is struggling with a two-game skid and will be closely monitoring Tim Hardaway Jr.’s status due to a nagging foot concern. Historically, the Magic have fared well against Western Conference squads at Amway Center, bringing an extra level of confidence against a Dallas squad that has seen recent defensive lapses. With Orlando’s youthful core at full strength and the Mavericks still seeking consistency, the Magic’s moneyline offers a moderate risk but solid potential reward.

Over/Under Pick: Over 219, (-110) - A-

Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks, currently stuck in a two-game skid, look determined to break their slump against the Orlando Magic, who just rattled off two straight wins and seem to have recaptured some momentum. With Jonathan Isaac sidelined for Orlando and multiple contributors healthy for Dallas, both rosters have enough firepower on the floor to keep the points flowing. Historically, these teams have engaged in tight, high-scoring affairs when the Magic visit Western Conference arenas, and this sequel should be no different. Over 219 receives a confident A- grade for its strong likelihood and decent potential payout. Odds and availability are subject to change.

Spread Pick: Dallas, +6 (-110) - A-

Luka Doncic continues to drive Dallas (35-37) despite a recent two-game skid, and with Kyrie Irving currently active on the roster, the Mavericks look to exploit Orlando’s (34-38) own one-game slump. The Magic have dealt with intermittent absences—particularly Markelle Fultz—leaving them thin where they typically thrive, while Dallas historically finds an extra gear against Eastern Conference opponents on the road. Backing the Mavericks plus the points carries solid upside for bettors, and the likelihood of cashing in feels strong enough to earn an A- rating. Odds and availability are subject to change.
