NBA Betting Previews November 21
Raptors vs. Magic: The Raptors came through nicely for us the other night as a big favorite. That was at home however. Tonight they face off against Orlando on the road as a +2 dog. The official opening number for Toronto was +1.5. There is an underlay here as our number comes in at Orlando 3.27.
The Magic are 8-5 Straight Up and 10-3 Against The Spread. Toronto is 6-7 Straight Up with a 7-6 ATS record entering this game.
Orlando has been without one of its stars, Markelle Fultz (left knee tendinitis), but still managed to pull off three wins in a row. Paolo Banchero led the way with 24 points against Indiana as the Magic led by as many as 40 points.
Toronto is 7-3 against Orlando in their last ten meetings.
Cavs @ 76ers: Philadelphia opened as a -7.5 home favorite against a Cavs team that also pulled off a nice win for us the other night. Just like the Raptors, the Cavs earned that victory at home.
The line has mostly moved between -7.5 and -8. There is definitely an overlay here as we get a number of 4.44.
The Sixers so far this season are 10-3 both Straight Up and Against The Spread. Cleveland is 7-6 SU and 5-8 ATS.
Philadelphia has won seven of the last eight in this series. Only three were by more than the current spread however.
Last year as a home favorite of 6 or greater, the Sixers went 6-5 Against The Spread.
Pacers +4 Hawks: The line on this game came in at Hawks -4. There's been little movement. We get a number of 2.76 so there is a slight overlay.
Atlanta is 6-6 Straight Up but just 4-8 Against The Spread. The Hawks are 6-1 SU in the last seven of this series. Only three of those six wins were covers using the 4-point spread.
The OVER has occurred in 11 of the Pacers 12 games so far this season.
