Denver Nuggets vs. Orlando Magic GAMEDAY Preview: How to Watch, Betting Odds, Injury Report
ORLANDO - The Orlando Magic is ready to welcome the defending champion Denver Nuggets for its annual trip to the Amway Center tonight.
The Magic is 24 hours fresh off a big 126-107 victory against the Toronto Raptors last night in its In-Season Tournament game. Meanwhile, the Nuggets are playing the third of four games on their current road trip, which they started 1-1.
The Magic was one of few teams the Nuggets struggled against during their championship campaign a year ago. Denver narrowly won at home thanks to a Nikola Jokic buzzer beater, and lost in Orlando by double digits back in February.
Orlando has the size to match Denver, especially with Jokic. However, the team will be without Wendell Carter Jr., who has been out for the past three weeks with a hand injury. Point guard Markelle Fultz is also likely to miss tonight's game.
