The playoff-chasing Orlando Magic visits Toronto, desperate to get a win and climb the standings following a streak of losses. The Toronto Raptors beat the Golden State Warriors and champions Boston Celtics before slumping to a Giannis Antetokounmpo-led Milwaukee Bucks last time. With both teams recording more losses than wins recently, the oddsmakers are hedging, even as the Orlando Magic are slight favorites to win.

Toronto Raptors
The Raptors (10-32, 14th in the Eastern Conference) are 3-7 in their last ten but have won two from their previous five. Toronto has made the most of a tough run that included matches against NBA-leading Cleveland Cavaliers, Detroit Pistons, and champions Boston Celtics by beating the Celtics and the GS Warriors at home. Last Saturday, they lost 130-112 to the Bucks in a game with Antetokounmpo posting a 12th straight double-double. RJ Barnet scored 21 points and 10 assists to lead the Raptors, while Bruce Brown added 17. The Raptors had earlier scraped tight consecutive wins over GS Warriors and Boston Celtics, winning 104-101 and 110-97 respectively.
Bet on Toronto Raptors vs. Orlando Magic with 1xBetOrlando Magic
The Orlando Magic (23-21, seventh in the Eastern Conference) go to Toronto having dropped their last three games, including two on the road. The Magic, who beat the Toronto Raptors earlier this year, have one win from six but are clinging to the play-in places. In their first regular season meeting, also in Toronto, the Orlando Magic scored a 106-97 victory, with Tristan Da Silva hitting a career-high 25 points. Against the Denver Nuggets yesterday, Wendell Carter Jr., led Orlando with 16 points and 13 rebounds, while Anthony Black added 14 points from the bench as the Magic lost a third straight game. With star Jalen Sugg unavailable, like in the first game against the Raptors, the Magic will have to sort out their defensive errors after conceding at least over 110 in their last three games.
