BookMaker has the Los Angeles Clippers listed as 7.5-point favorites at home against the Orlando Magic on Tuesday night. Los Angeles has won seven of the last ten while Orlando has won two of the last three meetings. The Clippers are 6-4 ATS in the last ten while the Magic are 2-1 ATS in the last three games in the series. The Orlando Magic are 3-0 ATS overall, 2-0 ATS on the road, and 1-0 ATS as an underdog this season while the Los Angeles Clippers are 2-1 ATS overall, 2-0 ATS at home, and 2-1 ATS as a favorite on the year.

Orlando is an improved team this season, however, they aren’t as talented as Los Angeles and have lost seven of the last ten and two of the last three games against the Clippers. The Clippers have covered the spread in both of their home games this season going 2-0 ATS at home. I look for the Los Angeles Clippers to improve to 3-0 ATS at home which is why I am buying the .5 point and laying the points with the Clippers when they host the Magic on Tuesday night.
