ORLANDO - The Orlando Magic hopes to get back in the win column tonight as it hosts the Los Angeles Clippers in their annual trip to the Kia Center.

The two teams last faced off on Halloween, where the Clippers beat the Magic 118-102. The next day, the Clippers traded for James Harden from the Philadelphia 76ers and they've been seen as a title contender ever since.

However, the Clippers and Magic find themselves in similar positions jockeying for playoff seeding. The Clippers are currently at No. 4 in the Western Conference, but lead by only 0.5 game for a top-four seed against the New Orleans Pelicans. Meanwhile, the Magic's two-game losing streak has the team back at No. 5 and 1.5 games back of the No. 4 spot.
