Reasoning
The New York Knicks go into today’s game against the Orlando Magic with a lot of confidence. They currently have the second-best record at home, having won 12 of 13 games there so far this season. Only the Oklahoma City Thunder has fewer losses. Those games tend to be comfortable for them too, with a points differential of +14.6, again the second-best mark in the league. The Magic have had mixed results on the road, winning 5 of their 10 games. They will be hoping that Karl-Anthony Towns does not take to the floor, with the Knicks star listed as questionable. His status could swing the outcome of this game.
The Magic have still had issues this season shooting the ball from deep, ranking just 23rd in 3-point percentage. Against a team that is 5th in that category, that difference in efficiency could be hard to overcome. The Magic have relied on points in the paint instead, ranking 4th in that category, but these will not be easy to come by today. With the help of Mitchell Robinson, the hosts will have plenty of rim protection. This season they have given up the 4th fewest paint points to opponents and are well positioned to take away the visitors’ strengths. Look for their great home form to continue here.
