Orlando's struggles on the road rear their ugly heads in our Magic vs. Lakers predictions for Thursday, November 21.
The Magic are playing the second half of a road back-to-back in Los Angeles and will struggle to keep things close against LeBron James and the Lakers, especially as they're short-handed without Paolo Banchero.
However, that winning streak was a bit of fool’s gold as it included victories over the Suns, 76ers, Pacers, Hornets, Wizards, and Pelicans. The Suns are the only team on the list with a winning record, and they were missing Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal at the time. Home-road splits are critical in my evaluation of this line, and I’m backing the Lakers at home to handle business against a Magic team missing its superstar forward and playing on the second night of a back-to-back.shows no signs of slowing down… except as a scorer. James is averaging the fewest points and shot attempts of his career, but he’s getting it done elsewhere, averaging 8.1 rebounds and 9.4 assists.
His home-road splits are notable, too. Wagner has averaged 30.6 PRAs on the road and 35.9 at home. Los Angeles’ defense isn’t tremendous, but this could turn into a blowout, and I’m not counting on Wagner to reach this lofty total.
