Still, I see a path to the under.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For one thing, Ingram has cashed this under slightly more than half the time this season (17-16, 51.5%).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Additionally, the Magic have a distinctly stingy 3-point defence. Opponents are attempting the fewest 3s per game against them (32.4).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"acq_only\"><strong>-> <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNjY1NzMyJnA9MzExMjU%3D\">Full Magic vs. Raptors prop markets at NorthStar Bets<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ingram is 1-for-15 from deep over his past two games, which is evidence that he can go ice cold in a hurry. And a substantial 3-point shot volume won&#8217;t necessarily save him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m expecting the Magic to take away some of that volume tonight, leaving Ingram with a thinner margin for error from beyond the arc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, Ingram surpassed 39 minutes last night for just the second time this season. A lack of rest could be a factor for tonight&#8217;s back-to-back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat<\/strong>: Ingram is just 3-for-13 from deep over his past four games against Orlando.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"product_only\"><a href=\"cacheembed:122451\">Embed: #122451<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Raptors picks and predictions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-479767b6-5872-497b-ac44-239c07c7e3d5\"><strong><strong>Black over 18.5 points <\/strong>(-118)<\/strong>: When Franz Wagner (ankle) went down a few weeks ago, Black stepped into the starting lineup.
