Magic vs. Thunder Prediction, Odds and Best NBA Prop Bets for Tuesday, Feb. 3

In this story:
The Oklahoma City Thunder return home looking to make it two wins in a row when they host the Orlando Magic.
The Thunder won their last home game against the Pelicans, but then fell in Minnesota before a road win in Denver on Sunday. Meanwhile, the Magic saw its modest two-game winning streak come to an end in San Antonio and is now 2-5 in their last seven games.
Oklahoma City is dealing with a few injuries heading into this one, though, with three important players all questionable.
The oddsmakers have the Thunder as home favorites at the best betting sites on Tuesday night.
Let’s take a look at the odds, players to watch and my prediction for Tuesday night’s NBA matchup.

Magic vs. Thunder Best NBA Prop Bets
Magic Best NBA Prop Bet
After a slower start to the season, Anthony Black has been finding his shot from beyond the arc. The Magic guard made seven three pointers in October, 17 in 14 November games, 26 in 14 December games, and had 29 in 13 games last month. He also started February with a 2-for-5 night from beyond the arc in San Antonio.
Black has made multiple three-pointers in four of his last five games and in 15 of his last 20 dating back to late December.
The Magic are going to need to drain some shots from deep to stay in the game against Oklahoma City, and the Thunder allow 14.5 three pointers per game, including 3.5 to point guards.
Magic vs. Thunder Prediction and Pick
The three questionable players for the Thunder loom large, but Oklahoma City should still be able to take care of business here at home.
The Magic are just 19-29 against the spread this season, including 9-16 on the road and 1-4 when the spread was in this range.
The Thunder are coming home after a 10-point win in Denver, and they won their last home game by nine against the Pelicans. They’ll be able to cover against the Magic tonight.
Pick: Thunder -8.5 (-102)
