Hornets vs. Magic Preview: How to Watch, Lineups, Injury Report
In this story:
ORLANDO - The Orlando Magic (0-4) is searching for its first win as it hosts the Charlotte Hornets (2-2) Friday night at the Amway Center.
The Magic and Hornets' seasons have been defined by the injury bug so far, and both teams are decimated in the backcourt. Orlando will play without Jalen Suggs and Cole Anthony while LaMelo Ball and Terry Rozier won't suit up for Charlotte.
With the guards out, attention draws towards the big men for each team, especially No. 1 overall pick Paolo Banchero, who will look to top his 30-point performance from Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
