What to Know
The Orlando Magic have enjoyed the comforts of home their last six games, but now they must head out on the road. They will take on the Oklahoma City Thunder at 8 p.m. ET Wednesday at Paycom Center. If the game is anything like their last meeting in March, where the Magic won 90-85, we could be in for a big score.
The Golden State Warriors typically have all the answers at home, but on Tuesday Orlando proved too difficult a challenge. Orlando narrowly escaped with a win as the team sidled past the Dubs 94-90. Orlando’s small forward Franz Wagner filled up the stat sheet, picking up 18 points.
Meanwhile, Oklahoma City came up short against the Boston Celtics on Monday, falling 132-123. Oklahoma City was down 108-84 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. Oklahoma City’s defeat came about despite a quality game from point guard Tre Mann, who shot 7-for-12 from downtown and finished with 35 points and seven rebounds.
The Magic’s victory brought them up to 20-53 while the Thunder’s loss pulled them down to 20-52. A couple offensive stats to keep an eye on: Orlando is second worst in the league in points per game, with only 104.1 on average. OKC has experienced some struggles of their own as they have only been able to knock down 42.60% percent of their shots, which is the lowest field goal percentage in the league. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
