Minnesota Timberwolves vs Orlando Magic : Orlando Magic 7.5 (-115)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

Even though the Orlando Magic are on a downward trend with a 1-4 away record in their last 5, they have shown themselves capable of keeping games close. Their last five away games were lost by an average margin of just 7 points, which is less than our point spread of 7.5. On the other hand, while the Timberwolves have a better overall record, they've only outscored opponents by an average of 4.2 points in their last five home games. This, paired with both teams having an equally matched 1-1 record against each other, suggests that the Magic could cover the 7.5 point spread. Betting on the Magic might be a bit of a gamble, but the stats show they have a good chance of keeping this game within 7.5 points.

Rudy Gobert is a name that's been lighting up the scoreboard recently, especially when he's got the home-court advantage. The Timberwolves' towering center is just shy of a double-digit average in his last five home appearances, netting a cool 10.2 points per game. Now, let's turn our attention to Gobert's record against our friends from Orlando. It's one that screams 'Over 9.5', with an impressive 16 points per game in their last five matchups. Plus, when the Magic roll into Timberwolves territory, Gobert seems to find that extra bit of magic himself, nudging his average up to 16.3 points. If that's not enough to convince you, consider this: Gobert has crossed the 9.5-point threshold in two of his last three home games. So, why not ride the Gobert wave? This Saturday could be another big night for our man in Minnesota.
