Golden State Warriors vs Orlando Magic: Current situation
At 24-24 the Warriors are on the edge of the play-in tournament in the West as things stand. That’s actually surprising considering the injury situation they’ve dealt with over the past month or so. Draymond Green and Jonathan Kuminga have been out for a while, over their last 5 games the Warriors have come out on top in 3 of them, they are just trying to survive before the All-Star break arrives.
The Orlando Magic know a thing or two about injuries this season. One of the most injury decimated teams in the entire NBA is currently holding on to the 8th seed following 3 straight defeats. The situation is far from ideal, over the last 10 games the Magic have just 2 wins. Right now they are in midst of a 6-game road trip which will see them play Sacramento and Denver before returning home for their next 3 games.
Golden State Warriors Stats & Form
With Draymond Green out the Warriors had a hard time dealing with the likes of Kevin Durant and Devin Booker in their most recent loss. Stephen Curry finished with just 14 on the night, going 1-for-6 from three. The good news is the reserves got a lot of playing time as the game was out of reach in the 3rd quarter, so the starters will be relatively fresh for Monday’s game.
Orlando Magic Stats & Form
Orlando just laid an egg against one of the worst teams in the NBA, losing to the Utah Jazz 113-99. However, there were some positives to take away, despite the horrible defeat. Franz Wagner had one of his best games since returning from injury as he went for 37 points, he was joined by Cole Anthony as the only other Magic player to score in double-figures in that game. Paolo Banchero has to improve, he went just 4-for-19 from the field and scored 9 points total.
Golden State Warriors vs Orlando Magic: Head-to-Head
It’s been mostly 50-50 between the two teams as far as head-to-head meetings go in recent years. Both teams have won 5 times each and have also covered the spread as many times in those games. Scoring has been hard to come by with an average of just 217 points per game scored and the under cashing 6 times. Monday’s game will be the 71st regular season meeting all-time, the Magic hold a slim lead with 36 wins to Golden State’s 34 wins.

Betting tip and prediction: Golden State Warriors vs Orlando Magic (03.02.2025)
There is one distinct difference between these two teams and that’s their play on the defensive end. Despite going through a rough patch result wise, the Magic have not turned their backs on the style of play which had them in the top 3 in the East over the first 2 months of the season. That has to feel good if you are a Magic fan, because in the end defense wins championships. Golden State has fallen off a bit statistically on that end, mainly due to the absence of Draymond Green who has been out for the last couple of weeks. There are good news on the horizon though as he is expected to return to the line-up as early as this week. When Green doesn’t play the Warriors are just 6-8 SU, with their defensive numbers plummeting. All signs here are pointing to a lower scoring game. The Magic have had a hard time putting the ball into the basket all season, we just saw them finish with 99 points in a game against one of the worst teams in the NBA the Utah Jazz. The under has cashed in 7 straight Magic games vs Western Conference opponents, plus for the season they are 11-15 on the O/U in away games. Golden State has had 2 games of less than 110 points scored in their last 4 outings, against the 2nd slowest paced team in the league we might be in for yet another slugfest here. Let’s stick with the trends and back the under for this game.
