Raptors vs. Magic preview

The Raptors and Magic are facing off for the second time this season and the first time in Orlando. The two teams met last month in Toronto, where the Magic squandered a 20-point lead as the Raptors ferociously came back in the fourth quarter to pull out a win.

Now the Magic are looking for revenge as they try to stay above .500 despite a tough stretch of basketball for them. Meanwhile, the Raptors are trying to keep pace in the Eastern Conference with several teams hovering around the 2-5 mark in the standings.

This won't be an easy game for the Raptors as the Magic boast one of the best forward tandems in the league with Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner. However, the latter has been injured for most of the last month, and he is questionable for the game against the Raptors.

Regardless of who is out there for the Magic, the Raptors need to learn from their mistakes in their loss against the Knicks and apply it against the Magic. If they can find a way to get good looks on the offensive end, they should be able to enjoy a different result than they had earlier this week when they lost to the Knicks.
