The Brooklyn Nets (40-34, sixth in the Eastern Conference) visit Amway Center on Sunday to face the Orlando Magic (31-43, 13th in the Eastern Conference) for the second out of three meetings this season. Brooklyn leads the regular-season series 1-0.
In the first game, a Nets 109-102 win on Nov. 28, Kevin Durant scored 45 points to lead Brooklyn in scoring. Ben Simmons, who most likely will not play again for the team this season due to a nerve impingement in his back, left this game early due to soreness in his left knee. Paolo Banchero and Bol Bol scored 24 points each to lead the Magic in scoring.
Brooklyn comes into this game having won just one of its past six games, but they picked up a dominating 129-100 win over the Miami Heat on Saturday. It was the kind of performance that shows that Brooklyn can overpower the opponent when everything is working. However, time will tell if their offense will be as good less than 24 hours after beating the Heat.
Orlando comes into this contest having won three of its last four games and that includes impressive wins over the New York Knicks and the Los Angeles Clippers. In their win over the Knicks, Banchero scored 21 points to lead the Magic to the victory as he continues his ROY campaign.
