Coming off a disappointing 1-3 West Coast road trip, the Orlando Magic return to action at home against the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday night. After stealing a win against the Sacramento Kings, the Magic sleepwalked through their road trip finale in Portland, getting blown out by 39 at the hands of the surprising Trail Blazers. With the playoffs slipping further and further away, the Magic need to steady the ship and show some improvement the final 17 games of the season before an important offseason.
The Magic will once again be without Elfrid Payton and Nikola Vucevic, as they work their way back from injury.
Game time is set for 7:00 PM Eastern at the Amway Center. TV coverage is being provided by Fox Sports Florida, and radio coverage on ESPN580 Orlando.
