Magic vs Rockets preview

The Orlando Magic shocked Cleveland in their last outing and Paolo Banchero talked the talk with 24 points, 7 assists and 11 rebounds in a chippy game that got heated as Orlando put a stop to the Cavaliers 16-game win streak.

Despite some difficult patches in their season, the Magic look likely set for a playoff position and they are just two games back from a top 7 finish that would qualify them for the postseason without having to play in the play-in tournament.

With some easier games coming up, a victory against the in form Houston Rockets would be a bonus at a time where wins are becoming more and more important.

Nobody is playing better than the Rockets right now and with a seven game win streak they will be full of confidence coming to the Kia Center on Wednesday night.

The Nuggets are keeping pressure on the Rockets in their pursuit of a top two seed in the West and the teams are currently all tied up 12 games back from the Thunder.

Following a dramatic overtime win against the beleaguered Sixers, the Rockets will feel they can do no wrong right now and a three point spread seems generous.
