NBA division leaders meet tonight in Orlando when the 37-18 Magic host the 33-21 Dallas Mavericks. The visiting Mavs put a temporary halt on their ATS woes Wednesday night with a home victory and cover against the Phoenix Suns. Still, they are just 4-14 ATS the last 18 games overall and have been bet to 6.5-point underdogs at the majority of our recommended online sportsbooks for tonight’s matchup.

This has been an interesting head to head series with the road team winning three straight. This is the first meeting this year.

Orlando also won on Wednesday night, crushing a lousy Detroit Pistons team 116-91 as 11-point chalk, their eighth in the last 10 games and 11th in 14 games. They have literally alternated wins and losses at the betting window over those last 10 games and have not covered consecutive contests since January 22-23.

Dwight Howard had a monster game against Detroit, going for 33 points, 17 rebounds and seven blocks.

There could be a potential look-a-head situation in play here as the Magic will host Cleveland Sunday afternoon in the final of their three-game homestand.

Dallas has won five of six overall against the Magic, including three straight in Orlando. Dirk Nowitzki has averaged 26.8 PPG, 8.5 RPG and 4.7 APG during that stretch.

Nowitzki will be looking for some help here for his newest teammates, Caron Butler and Brendan Haywood. The team is 1-1 SU since acquiring the pair in a deal with the Washington Wizards. One thing to note is the fact that Butler had played very well against the Magic during his time with the Wizards, including a 31-point effort and a game winning shot nine days ago.

The Mavs have dropped their last two road games, both by double-digits, and four of their last five. They have not lost three straight away games this season.
