Rockets vs. Magic Preview: How to Watch, Lineups, Injury Report
ORLANDO - The Orlando Magic (2-8) wants to take advantage of a winnable game tonight against the Houston Rockets (1-9)
Both the Magic and Rockets boast young squads that are prioritizing development just as much as wins and are candidates for some of the top picks for the next draft.
The Magic selected Paolo Banchero with the top pick in this summer's draft, while the Rockets went with No. 3 selection Jabari Smith, who many thought would start his career in Orlando.
Given their records, both teams are hungry for a win and are eyeing tonight as a great night to get it done. A win tonight would snap a six-game losing streak for the Rockets, while the Magic hope to pick up a second win in the team's seven-game homestand.
