Magic at Philly - our tips and picks of the picks

We've taken a look across the web at the major tipsters and what they are forecasting for this game, with the majority forecasting a win for Orlando, which we disagree with, going for a Sixers win ourselves. We are doubling our tip up with an Overs bet, as we think the sportsbooks have got this one wrong, and our models tell us the total points should be between 215 and 218, which should comfortably land us a win with an Overs bet.

Dimers - forecasting a 107-103 win for Orlando, and therefore a Sixers (+4.5) bet
Clutch Points - cannot trust Joel, so are picking Magic to win at low odds
Pickswise - the first of the gang to pick 76ers to win the game and a bet on that at odds of 2.35 to 2.50
Sportskeeda - picking the Magic to win the game on the moneyline at short odds
Betting Odds - predicting a 106-102 win for Orlando, and tipping Magic (-4) and Over (209.5)
Sportsline - projecting a 108-107 win for the Sixers, and modest bet on Over (209.5)

Magic at Philly - Player Prop Bets

Marked at an Over/Under line of 9.5, we see an Unders Bet on the rebounds market for Magic's Goga Bitadze as a print. He has an average of 6.5 in his last 10, and we are forecasting under 7 for the massive unit.

We recommend a 2 point bet at odds of 1.65 or thereabouts

In fact we'd are going for another double and are going to add the bet to our next player prop pick.

Despite us picking the Sixers for the win, we think Guerschon Yabusele is ridiculously priced at odds of 1.83 to come Under 19.5 in his Points + Assists + Rebounds market. He has a recent average of 18.2, we are forecasting a PRA of just over 12 for the frenchman, so we will add him into our bet.

We recommend a 2 point bet at odds of 1.90-180

We also recommend a 2pt double at combined odds of 3.13 or round abouts
