Miami Heat (14-10) at Orlando Magic (14-10)

Wednesday 10/12/2025 at 10:00am AEDT. Venue: Amway Center (Orlando)

The Heat and Magic go head to head in the 1st NBA Cup quarterfinal on Wednesday morning. Here are my NBA betting tips for this matchup.

Last 5 Form

Magic Orlando Magic

The Magic are 3-2 in their last 5 but have lost 2 of their last 3. Last game, they lost a low scoring affair against the Knicks on the road 106-100. They are undefeated in the NBA Cup, going 4-0.

Heat Miami Heat

The Heat are not in the best form at the moment after losing 4 of their last 5. Their last game was a shocker too, going down 127-111 on their home court. However, they’ll be fired up to avenge a recent 1 pt loss against the Magic at this arena.

Head to Head

The two sides have met twice this season and the Magic are 2-0. However, both games have been decided by under 5 pts.

Best Bet

This should be another tight contest between these two teams and it’s trending towards the Under. The Under is now 5-2 in the Heat’s last 7 games and the Magic also have a nice 4-1 record against the Under in their last 5. The last clash totalled just over 200 points so 234 seems a bit high.

Raptors Toronto Raptors

Toronto have shown improvement this season but not at the moment. Over their last 6 games, they’re just 1-5. In this home-stand, they’ve lost 3 straight games against the Celtics, Hornets and Lakers.

Knicks New York Knicks

The Knicks are red-hot coming into this clash with 3 straight wins and they’re the #2 seed in the East. They’ve covered the line in 7 of their last 8 and also like facing the Raptors.

New York has dominated this head to head, winning 9 straight against the Raptors.

Best Bet

The trends are all over the Knicks to continue their dominance over the Raptors. In the last 9 meetings, the Knicks have covered in 8 of 9. At the moment, the Raptors form just isn’t there and the Knicks are playing much better Basketball. So I expect them to make it 10 straight wins over Toronto and cover a pretty short line.

New York Knicks -5 @ $1.90

NBA Same Game Multi Tips

Here are my NBA same game multi tips for the Raptors against the Knicks.

  • 1st Leg – Josh Hart 8+ Rebounds: Hart is always a good target in the rebounding markets for the Knicks. He comes off 12 boards last game and has beaten 8+ rebounds in 2 of his last 3 games.
  • 2nd Leg – Jalen Brunson 30+ Points: Brunson scored 30 pts in his last game against the Magic and 33 previously against the Jazz.
  • 3rd Leg – Brandon Ingram 25+ Points: Ingram exploded for 30 pts against a tough Celtics defence last time out and let’s hope he continues the shooting form into Wednesday’s matchup.
