Magic at Pistons Predictions: Odds, recent stats, trends and best bets for April 19

The Orlando Magic (45-37) travel to Detroit to take on the No. 1 seeded Pistons (60-22). The two teams split the season series 2-2.

Detroit clinched the No. 1 seed and is one of three teams to reach 60 wins this season (Spurs, Thunder). The Pistons lost in the first round over six games to the Knicks last season, but are much improved this year, ranking second on defense and ninth in offensive net rating.

Cade Cunningham missed a portion of the season, but returned for the final three games of the regular season ahead of the playoffs. Orlando lost to Philadelphia during the play-in tournament, but pounded Charlotte in order to make the playoffs. The Magic ended the regular season on a heater, but fumbled the No.

6 seed in the last game and over the past month. The Magic rank 13th and 18th in offensive and defensive net rating this season, and have been very up-and-down. Luckily, they have welcomed Franz Wagner back to the mix this month, and just in time for a tough series.
