Orlando returns to action Thursday night at home against the Boston Celtics, who might be the only team standing in the way of a trip to the Finals. The Magic are coming off another great road trip in which they beat each of the division leaders out West in the Spurs, Lakers, and Nuggets.

Now they face the leaders of the Atlantic, expecting to continue their trek toward legitimizing themselves as serious title favorites. The Magic are 6-1 ATS in their last seven home games, while the Celtics are 1-5 ATS in the last six meetings in Orlando.

Orlando lost earlier this season at Boston, but this is not the same Magic team it was earlier. Be sure to get your NBA basketball odds tonight before the big game.
