Orlando at Charlotte

The Charlotte Hornets are 18-53 on the season, and three games from the bottom of the NBA Eastern Conference. They carry a two game losing streak into tonight's home game against the Orlando Magic. The Magic currently occupy the #8 seed in the NBA play-in round at 34-38. Charlotte will be without Brandon Miller and Trey Mann who have combined for 36 points a game on the season. It has been a tough go for the Hornets as their top three scorers have played in just 129 of 213 games between them, and it certainly has set this team back. The Magic are 3-1 in their last four games, including wins against the Lakers and Cavs. I like Orlando in this one.
