Orlando Magic vs Milwaukee Bucks 8/18/2020 Betting Odds Orlando Magic BettingThe Orlando Magic went subpar inside the bubble and won three of their eight games. In between, they had a five-game losing streak including an overtime loss against the Boston Celtics. Nikola Vucevic will be relied on to lead the team as he is an instant double-double and the anchor inside the paint. Evan Fournier has been up-and-down for the past eight games and they need him to perform well in order to stand a chance against the Bucks. Aaron Gordon will be the main help inside the paint with Vucevic while Terrence Ross and Markele Fultz are coming off the bench with productive expectations. Players to Watch: N.

Milwaukee Bucks BettingThe Milwaukee Bucks managed to secure the top record in the NBA despite just winning only three games inside the bubble. The team may have struggled but they are glad that MVP candidate Giannis Antetokuonmpo is back from suspension and is locked and loaded for the NBA Playoffs. Much is expected from Kris Middleton and Eric Bledsoe to perform on a higher level to increase the team’s chances to secure the championship. Brook Lopez has been a great complimentary piece as a stretch center who also anchors the paint. This team also possesses one of the deepest benches in the league and that will surely be a huge factor. Players to watch: G.
