Charlotte Hornets vs Orlando Magic game time, TV schedule and more

After their ugly loss to the lowly Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday, the Orlando Magic return to action tonight at home against the banged up Charlotte Hornets. Losers of eight of their last nine, the Magic are in desperate need of a win to steady their rapidly sinking ship. With just a 3.5 game lead on 13th place in the Eastern Conference, and a grueling stretch coming up, tonight's game is seemingly a must win for the Magic.

Game time is set for 7:00 PM Eastern at Amway Center, with TV coverage being provided by Fox Sports Florida, and radio coverage on ESPN580 Orlando.
