Washington Wizards vs Orlando Magic- Game Prediction
The Orlando Magic will play the Washington Wizards on the road in an attempt to win back-to-back games this season. Paolo Banchero averages 22.5 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 4.0 assists a game for the Magic.
Tristan da Silva is the Magic's best long-range player. He makes 1.8 long-range shots every game. 1.2 thefts per game are also recorded by him. Every game, Banchero gathers 1.2 blocks.
On the other hand, Kyshawn George has shown this season to lead the players in points, rebounds, and assists. George hits 3.4 treys per game. The Wizards' defensive efforts also get a lift from Carlton Carrington and Alex Sarr.
Hence, it's safe to say that the Orlando Magic will enter the matchup with strong defensive form and a young core full of energy, giving them an early-season edge. The Wizards, however, rely heavily on Jordan Poole’s scoring spark to stay competitive.
