The odds listed were as per available information at the time of writing.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Orlando Magic vs Boston Celtics preview<\/h3>\n<p>The Magic will look to keep their season alive when they face the Celtics for Game 5 of their first-round series on Tuesday. While Orlando was able to get a win in Game 3, it was outplayed 107-98 on Sunday in Game 4 to leave its season hanging by a thread.<\/p>\n<p>Orlando has shown glimpses of excellence but it hasn\u2019t been consistent enough to trouble Boston. The team is great defensively but lacks scoring options outside of Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner. It also struggles from the 3-point line, as evidenced by its 28.0% shooting across the four games.<\/p>\n<p>Banchero led the team with 31 points on Sunday, while the Celtics were led by Jayson Tatum\u2019s 37 points and 14 rebounds.<\/p>\n<p>Boston has looked its dominant self, and despite dropping a game on the road, it looks like the team is well on its way for another finals appearance.<\/p>\n<p>The Celtics will be without Jrue Holiday on Tuesday as he has been ruled out with a hamstring injury. Jaylen Brown is questionable with a knee injury. The Magic had no new additions to their injury list, as Jalen Suggs (knee) and Moritz Wagner (left knee) are out for the season.<\/p>\n<h3>Orlando Magic vs Boston Celtics betting props<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/basketball\/paolo-banchero\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Paolo Banchero<\/a>\u2019s points total is set at 29.5. He crossed that mark in three of the four games in this series so far. Expect Banchero to have another good night. Bet on the over.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/basketball\/jayson-tatum\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Jayson Tatum<\/a>\u2019s points total is set at 27.5. He averages 36.5 points in the past two games and with Brown questionable, he should have a bigger offensive load. Bet on the over.<\/p>\n<h3>Orlando Magic vs Boston Celtics prediction and betting tips<\/h3>\n<p>The oddsmakers favor the Celtics heavily to get a win. While we expect them to win as well, they might fail to cover the spread. Orlando should put up a fight but will eventually lose to end its season. While this won\u2019t be a high-scoring game, the teams should be able to do enough to cross the 196-point mark.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post-rating-widget\">\n<p><template id=\"post-rating-feedback-modal-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-feedback-box\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-content\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-data\">\n<p>Why did you not like this content?<\/p>\n<p><textarea id=\"dislike-feedback-text\" rows=\"4\" placeholder=\"Please type your feedback...\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<button class=\"close\">Cancel<\/button><br \/>\n<button class=\"submit\">Submit<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-widget-parent hidden\">\n<div class=\"rating-parent-container\">\n<div class=\"rating-content-holder\">\n<p>Was this article helpful?<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-action-container\">\n<div class=\"like-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-like-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"like\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"like selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dislike-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-dislike-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"dislike\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-dis-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"avatar selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThank You for feedback\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-author-info-parent\">\n<span class=\"about-the-author\">About the author<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"author-info-holder\">\n<div class=\"author-pic-holder\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"author-pic\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,&lt;svg width=\" height=\"100\"\/><rect width=\"100\" height=\"100\" style=\"fill:rgb(128, 128, 128);\"\/>&#8221; data-lazy=&#8221;https:\/\/keedag.sportskeeda.com\/user-pic\/884327-1713611354-200.jpg?w=200&#8243;<br \/>\nalt=&#8221;Rajdeep Barman&#8221; height=&#8221;72&#8243; width=&#8221;72&#8243;&gt;\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-bio-detail-holder\">\n<div class=\"author-bio\">\n<p class=\"author-bio\" id=\"author-bio-text\">\nRajdeep Barman is a U.S. Sports Editor at Sportskeeda and occasionally writes about basketball.
