New Orleans Pelicans vs Orlando Magic Betting Trends

The upcoming NBA regular season game on January 11, 2026, features the New Orleans Pelicans visiting the Orlando Magic at the Kia Center in Orlando, FL. This game promises to be a thrilling encounter, with both teams showing distinct strengths and challenges this season.

New Orleans Pelicans have a 3-point shooting percentage of 33.6%, averaging 114.8 points per game while allowing 118.5 points defensively. Their offensive and defensive ratings suggest a high-paced game, but their 21-18-1 ATS record indicates some inconsistency against the spread, especially on the road with an 8-9 ATS away record. The Pelicans' starting lineup is expected to be strong, with key players likely to play despite any questionable injury status.

Orlando Magic, the home team, slightly edges New Orleans in 3-point shooting at 33.7% and averages 115.9 points per game while allowing only 113.1 points defensively, showcasing a tighter defense. Their home ATS record of 8-11 contrasts with a better straight-up home win record of 12-7, making their home performance somewhat unpredictable against the spread.

The betting trends favor Orlando Magic as favorites with a -6.5 point spread and a total game points line set at 234. The Magic's defensive efficiency and home court advantage could be decisive factors, but New Orleans' recent performances and scoring ability suggest a competitive matchup. Bettors should consider the game's point spread and total points, alongside team stats and injury updates, to make an informed wager. This game will be broadcast on Gulf Coast Sport, FDSFL, and Pelicans+.
