Super sportsbook Bodog previews tonight’s NBA betting card on the heels of the NFL injury report for week 15.
They start out with a look at the Orlando Magic vs. Miami Heat on TNT.
Michael Beasley dunked home a Dwyane Wade miss to seal a victory in the waning seconds of the Miami Heat’s visit to Orlando last month, and the Magic will look to atone for that loss tonight when they try for their seventh win in eight trips to Miami.
NBA basketball betting odds have the Magic listed as 4-point home favorites.
Beasley has scored at least 20 points seven times this season but perhaps his biggest impact came when he had 15 points and 12 boards Nov. 25 in Orlando.
Wade had 24 points, but the Heat haven’t exactly thrived against the Magic when he’s taken over offensively. Wade had averaged 40.0 points during his previous five games versus Orlando, but Miami had only won in his lowest-scoring performance of the bunch.
Rashard Lewis had his worst game of the season in the Magic’s loss to the Heat, shooting 3 of 15 and finishing with nine points.
