The Edge

A Tatum-less Boston laying 12.5 against a hot Orlando team on a 5-game win streak is an overpriced number — take the Magic to keep it within two possessions.

Key Factors

Tatum OUT — a franchise star absence is worth 3-5 pts of line adjustment per methodology, yet the spread remains a massive -12.5 for Boston
Orlando on a 5-game win streak covering at 6-4 ATS last 10, including a 24-point blowout cover at Chicago the night before
Orlando's road ATS as underdog is 16-15 (.516), showing they hold their own in road dog spots — exactly this scenario
Boston's point differential edge (+7.1) is built on a full roster; with Tatum, White, and Queta all out plus Vucevic and Hauser doubtful, that gap shrinks dramatically
