The Orlando Magic pay a visit to the Brooklyn Nets at the Barclays Center on Monday night.
The Orlando Magic have been in a slump as they’ve lost six of their last seven games overall and they will be hoping to arrest a four-game slide after getting blown off the floor against the 76ers in a 133-103 loss last night. Paolo Banchero led the team with 18 points, Franz Wagner added 17 points while RJ Hampton chipped in with 11 points off the bench. As a team, the Magic shot 45 percent from the field and 12 of 40 from the 3-point line as they got off to a terrible start and never recovered after getting dominated by 31-13 in the second quarter. On the defensive end, the Magic allowed the 76ers to shoot a season-high 64 percent from the field, all without their best player Joel Embiid.
Meanwhile, the Brooklyn Nets have been in decent shape as they’ve won four of their last six games overall and they will be eager to stay hot after routing the shorthanded Trail Blazers in a 111-97 home win last night. Kevin Durant led the team with 31 points and five assists on 12 of 20 shooting, Seth Curry drained seven 3-pointers to finish with 29 points off the bench while Kyrie Irving chipped in with 22 points and six assists. As a team, the Nets shot 52 percent from the field and 15 of 35 from the 3-point line, but this win was more about their defense as they struggled to gain any separation until the fourth quarter where they held the Trail Blazers to just 17 points to pull away and win comfortably in the end.
