ORLANDO, Fla. – The Orlando Magic and Atlanta Hawks clash in a pivotal matchup Tuesday night loaded with postseason implications. Tipoff is at 7 p.m. ET from the Kia Center.

Orlando, after wins at San Antonio last Tuesday and at Washington Thursday, have had four days off since last being in action.

Atlanta played twice over the weekend, splitting a Saturday loss versus the Knicks with a home win over the Jazz Sunday.

With both teams bound for the Play-In Tournament and vying for the Southeast division crown, the Magic enter Tuesday's bout a game ahead of the Hawks for the No. 7 seed. Home-court advantage in the No. 7-8 Play-In game is awarded to the higher seed.
