Magic face Pacers to start stretch of games against East playoff teams

The Orlando Magic are 2-0 since the NBA resumed play, but their schedule is about to get a whole lot more difficult.

Orlando dispatched Brooklyn (128-118) and Sacramento (132-116) in its first two games, and showed off the kind of offensive and defensive balance coach Steve Clifford is looking for from his team as it pushes for the playoffs.

But the Magic’s postseason pursuit likely hinges on their next four games when they’ll face the Pacers, Raptors, 76ers and Celtics. Each of those opponents already has clinched one of the Eastern Conference playoff spots.

But the Magic (32-35) don’t mind.
