Basketball is a fickle sport. After looking complete against the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday, the Orlando Magic struggled for periods on Thursday night in Memphis against the woefully shorthanded Grizzlies.
Now, looking to turn things back around after blowing a 14-point fourth quarter lead, the Magic finish off a back-to-back in Philadelphia against the fighting Joel Embiid's 76ers.
With two more games left on a five-game road trip after tonight, the Magic need to get back on track after a gut wrenching loss in Memphis. Orlando's defense took a step back for a portion of the game in Memphis, but was bailed out by their offense. However, their inability to consistently produce late ultimately cost them.
Game time is set for 7:00 PM Eastern at Wells Fargo Center. The game can be seen on FoxSports Florida, and heard ofn ESPN580 Orlando.
