Orlando Magic vs. San Antonio Spurs Preview
The Orlando Magic (36-40) and San Antonio Spurs (31-43) are all set to square off from Frost Bank Center in San Antonio.
The Orlando Magic are on the second half of a back-to-back. Last night they lost a close game to the LA Clippers.
The Magic are close to catching the Atlanta Hawks for the division title but must string some wins together.
The Spurs, without superstar Victor Wembanyama, have seen their playoff hopes evaporate. They are 13th in the Western Conference. They are on a four game losing streak and will likely be in trouble against the Magic.
The Magic are currently 16-21 on the road with a point differential of -1, while the Spurs have a 5-5 record in their last ten games at home.
