Magic to Sneak Past Hawks

Orlando are looking for their third successive victory in April when they welcome Atlanta to Kia Center. Magic have started the month with wins over San Antonio Spurs and Washington Wizards.

Hawks suffered three successive defeats before the win over Utah Jazz last time out, but can they follow that up with another victory? These two are close in the table, and Tuesday’s fixture in Florida could go either way.

This is tough to call, but home advantage could give Orlando the slight edge. Our money is going on Magic at 1.54.

Orlando Magic Win – 1.54

Cavaliers to Bounce Back with Routine Home Win

Cavaliers and Bulls go head-to-head in midweek NBA action at Rocket Arena. Cleveland are looking to bounce back after a rare defeat, and Kenny Atkinson’s boys are the big favourites.

After such a superb season, Cavaliers can afford the odd slip-up here and there. Last time out, the Eastern Conference leaders suffered a 120-113 home defeat to Sacramento Kings.

Chicago have won three in a row, but we are backing Cleveland to bounce back with a comfortable home win. Take a punt on Cavaliers to win -15.5 at 2.42.

Celtics to Leave New York with a Win

New York and Boston lock horns in a tasty midweek NBA clash at Madison Square Garden. Knicks sit third in the Eastern Conference, while Celtics are a place above. This promises to be an entertaining game in Midtown Manhattan.

New York have been in good form lately, picking up five wins from their previous six games. As for Boston, they have won 11 of the last 12. Their nine-game winning run was ended by Miami Heat at the start of the month, but Joe Mazzulla’s troops have bounced back with two wins.

New York are never an easy nut to crack in the Garden, but we can see in-form Boston leaving with a win. Put some money on the visitors to win -4.5 at 2.40.
