Orlando Magic vs Indiana Pacers Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
Two of last season’s surprise playoff teams face off as the Orlando Magic host the Indiana Pacers. Both squads will be gunning for a return to the postseason but which of them will come out the victors at the Kia Center on Monday? Let’s get into the match prediction!
It’s been a positive start for the Orlando Magic who have won two of their first three games. Wins over the Heat and the Nets preceded Orlando’s most recent trip to Memphis which resulted in a 124-111 loss.
The Magic were a pleasant surprise last year as they leaned on their elite defense and dynamic young duo of Banchero and Wagner to ultimately claim the fifth seed.
The goal this year should be to post another strong regular season and make it out of the first round in the playoffs.
While Orlando relied on one of the league's best defenses, Indiana beat teams using their high-octane offense. The Pacers had a fantastic year in 2023/24, leading the league in scoring and ultimately advancing to the Eastern Conference Finals as the sixth seed.
They started this campaign off with a win and a loss before a 118-114 overtime defeat at home to Philadelphia on Sunday in their last game.

Our Orlando Magic vs Indiana Pacers Prediction
Orlando have started the season well while Indiana have stumbled out of the blocks, losing two of their first three. To make matters worse, they'll now play the second half of a back-to-back on the road and with the first game having gone to overtime.
The Pacers were held to under 100 points by the Knicks in their second game, something that happened only four times last year, then scored just 105 points against the Sixers before overtime. A large reason for this is because of their ice-cold shooting from deep. Our Orlando Magic vs Indiana Pacers prediction: Magic -5.5.
