Team Updates

Orlando Magic

The Magic suffered a close defeat to the Boston Celtics on Sunday, ending their winning streak at three games after a 138-129 score. Jett Howard shined with a career-high 30 points, supported by Jase Richardson and Desmond Bane, who contributed 18 points each. Leading scorer Franz Wagner, averaging 23 points per game, added 15 points, 8 rebounds, and 5 assists during the loss. Unfortunately for Orlando, star forward Paolo Banchero remains sidelined due to a left groin strain suffered earlier this month, with no updates on his return timeline.

Philadelphia 76ers

The 76ers are also looking for redemption after a 127-117 loss to the Miami Heat in their most recent outing. Tyrese Maxey stood out with 27 points and has consistently scored more than 20 points across all 16 games this season, positioning him as one of the league leaders in scoring. Currently, he is second in the NBA at 33 points per game, behind only Luka Doncic. However, the team has been impacted by the absence of star player Joel Embiid, who has missed the last seven games due to knee soreness, and his status for tonight’s matchup is uncertain.
