The Orlando Magic (16-26) are 13th in the Eastern Conference and are coming off a win against the Portland Trailblazers (109-106) in their previous outing.
Franz Wagner led the scoring charts for the Magic, scoring 29 points followed by Wendell Carter Jr., who scored 20 points in the win.
Paolo Banchero, who has been the hot-shot for Orlando, also contributed 19 points along with 10 big rebounds and 2 assists. The team is now 5-5 in their last ten games, drifting away from the playoffs qualification. They will now take on the Utah Jazz (21-23), who are ninth in the West and managed a win against the Cleveland Cavaliers (116-114).
Jordan Clarkson was the go-to man in the game, scoring 32 points in the narrow win over the Cavs. Lauri Markkanen contributed 25 points in the win along with 16 massive rebounds, which proved to be enough against a strong Cleveland side. They are a strong side at home with a 13-7 record, which they will look to continue tonight as well.
