Expert picks & predictions for Monday’s Clippers vs. Magic game
NBC Sports Bet Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) leans the Clippers to win outright:
“The Clippers are coming off a loss to the Cavaliers yesterday (127-122), so they are at a rest disadvantage here. However, Orlando is coming off a 30-point win against Sacramento, which sets them up for a letdown spot. It’s a short spread, but with the Clippers being the favorite and no rest, I think that is telling. I lean the Clippers ML in Orlando.”
