Orlando Magic vs Charlotte Hornets preview
The Magic will play the second leg of a back-to-back after a convincing 118-106 win against the LA Lakers on Monday. It was a great win, as LA was at full strength, with LeBron James and Luka Doncic playing.
Orlando was led by Franz Wagner’s 32 points, while Paolo Banchero had 30 points. The team has won two straight games and has a 2.0-game lead over the ninth-placed Chicago Bulls. The Magic will try to strengthen their hold on the eighth spot, as it gives them two shots in the play-in tournament to make the playoffs.
The Hornets, meanwhile, are on a two-game losing streak and have won four of their past 10 games. They have also been eliminated from playoff contention, so they don’t have anything to play for. They must now get back to the drawing board and plan for the upcoming draft.
Charlotte is coming off of a 122-105 loss to the Miami Heat on Sunday. LaMelo Ball had a double-double of 18 points and 11 assists, while Nick Smith Jr. and Miles Bridges contributed 19 and 17 points, respectively.
