Friday NBA preview: Toronto Raptors at Orlando Magic
Hello, old friends: The NBA season is not even 20 games old and this is already the third meeting between Orlando and Toronto. The Raptors won the first two, both at Scotiabank Arena, and the teams won’t play their fourth game against each other until the last day of the regular season, April 15.
Banged-up bunch: The Magic lost Aaron Gordon and Nikola Vucevic to ankle injuries the last time they played Toronto, forcing Iwundu and Montreal’s Birch into the starting lineup. They are treading water, though: 5-5 in their last 10 games, and they won in Cleveland on Wednesday night.
