The Orlando Magic are coming off of a huge win in Boston against the Celtics.
Basketball-Reference.com // Magic box score vs. Celtics:
The Kings are currently on an eight game losing streak which has made them plummet to the bottom of the standings in the league. Which is why this is an important game for the Kings. The Magic are 1 game back from the Kings for the #1 pick and although it's only January, it's never too late to get the tank started.
Keys to the Game:
•Keep Moving the Ball
The Kings had 27 assists in yesterday's game and only just 7 turnovers. That's how you move the ball effectively and also take care of it.
•Defense
There's that word again. You aren't going to win with your opponent shooting 40% or above from the field and from three.
