Orlando Magic v Boston Celtics
Orlando Magic vs. Atlanta Hawks Prediction

The Atlanta Hawks will play host to the Orlando Magic on Monday (December 19) at the State Farm Arena in NBA Regular Season action. The betting odds and predictions are down below:

The Hawks ended their terrible run of form with a much-needed 125-106 win over the Charlotte Hornets in their last game as they once again improved to a .500 record. They are currently 15-15 overall, as they sit in eighth place in the Eastern Conference standings, a game below the Miami Heat in seventh. It was another resurgent performance by their sensation, Trae Young, who scored 31 points on the night in addition to nine assists.

He hasn’t had the best of starts to the month, averaging only 24 points per game in December thus far. Not a low number by any stretch, his points tally is still quite poor considering his otherwise lofty standards. His shooting accuracy has been the biggest issue this campaign, as he is making only 29% of his attempted threes, which is the lowest in his entire career.

The 11-20 Magic are on an absolute roll. They come into this game on the back of a six-game win streak. They arrive in Atlanta following an incredible double-sweep over the Boston Celtics, whom they defeated in successive road games at TD Garden.

Paolo Banchero's form has been immense for the Magic recently. He put on a show in the last game, scoring 31 points on 43% shooting from the floor.

Magic vs. Hawks Betting Prediction

It’s very hard to bet against the Magic at the moment. They are in terrorizing form, winning all of their last six. Their starting five is now quite set as the Wagner brothers seem to be working really well alongside ROTY favorite Paolo Banchero.

The Hawks looked solid in their last game but are still without Collins and Capela in their starting five. If recent results are anything to go by, the Magic should be able to win this one.

Orlando Magic: +240
