The Orlando Magic will head to the Spectrum Center to face the Charlotte Hornets in the NBA on Tuesday night. The Hornets (18-53) are 14th in the Eastern Conference, while the Magic (34-38) are eighth. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The Charlotte Hornets seem to have thrown in the towel for the season, 1-4 in their last five games and hoping to avoid a third straight loss after going down 122-105 to the Heat on Sunday.
No Charlotte player managed to reach 20 points in the defeat, while as a team, they shot 47% from the field and made 11 of 33 attempts from the three-point line. They also conceded 20 turnovers.
The Hornets are the third-lowest-scoring team in the league this season (105.8 PPG), but they have been a better side on defence, allowing 114.0 PPG (15th overall),
Meanwhile, the Orlando Magic are heating up at just the right time, now aiming for a third win on the bounce after a very impressive 118-106 win over the Lakers last night.
Franz Wagner and Paolo Banchero combined for 62 points in the victory, while as a team, Orlando shot a shade under 50% and converted 15 of their 40 attempts from long range.
The Magic are the lowest-scoring team in the NBA this season, averaging just 105.0 points per game, but they are the league's tightest defence that allows only 106.1 PPG.
