The Magic have actually been worse at home than on the road this season. They’re just 5-15 at home so far this season, which isn’t going to get it done. The Bucks are 13-12 on the road, which is respectable.
Ilyasova is ruled out for this game. He just can’t seem to stay healthy at all this season. That means that O’Bryant will be in the starting line-up, but look for Henson to pick up a lot of the extra minutes.
Pachulia should be able to have a big offensive game. Vucevic doesn’t play much defense and Pachulia seems to play better when Ilyasova is out anyways. He should be good for a double double tonight.

Orlando is a deep team with a lot of young talent, but they can’t win games lately. I’m a fan of Payton and we all know how good Oladipo can play. I’m a little curious why Gordon is starting over Harris though.
The coach has to work Harris into the starting line-up in my opinion. Orlando has been poor on both ends of the court, as they only score 95.7 PPG (23rd) while allowing opposing teams to score 101.7 PPG (23rd).
Milwaukee doesn’t score much (98.5 PPG – 20th), but they only allow 97.2 PPG (4th). The Bucks offense really relies on Knight having a big game. He needs to score 20+ points and dish out a lot of assists.
Middleton and Antetokounmpo are solid starters, but inconsistent on a night-to-night basis when it comes to scoring. Both may struggle a bit to get going because Oladipo and Gordon can play defense.
This game will come down to the PG’s and C’s in my opinion.

Vucevic can takeover a game when he’s rebounding and scoring buckets, but the problem with him is he throws up a lot of duds as well.

I like the Magic to win this game at home and snap their current losing streak. They’ve been on a tough run, but they’ve had a few days of rest and the players should be ready to roll tonight at Amway.
Orlando Magic +4.5 (-110)
Oladipo and Vucevic need to have big games and Harris has to be strong off the bench. Harris can really do damage when he’s on the court against this Bucks team. The ML looks tempting, but take the points.
