Orlando Magic Preview
The Orlando Magic have a 4-16 record and are fifteenth in the Eastern Conference. They have had some good performances, but the lack of firepower has cost them dearly. With Cole Anthony injured in recent games, the team's offense has not been in a good flow. The Magic will be hoping he returns to action soon and revives the team from this slump. Beating the Cavs is going to be tough for the Magic, but they will have to go all-in and put up an incredible performance to do so and improve their record for the season.
