It’s a full slate of games on the last Friday before Christmas. One of those games is a cross conference showdown at the Amway Center when the New Orleans Pelicans make the trip to Orlando to take on the Magic.
This will be the second match up of the year between the two teams. The first game the Magic came out ahead by a final score of 115-99.
New Orleans Pelicans
The New Orleans Pelicans have had a very up and down season so far this year. At times they have looked like a playoff bound team, and at other times they have looked at a team that needs to blow it up before the trade deadline and start a rebuild.
They come into this game having lost two games in a row and although they were underdogs in both of those games, they also failed to cover the spread.

The Magic have been an inconsistent team this year but they are a good offensive team at times. In this game the Pelicans are going to really need to step it up on the defensive side.
They really struggled on the defensive side the first time these two teams played, and that led to them losing that game.
Orlando Magic
On the other side of this match up is the Orlando Magic who got off to a good start to the season, but they have really struggled the last couple of months.
They come into this game having six games in a row, and they were only able to cove the spread in one of those games.
For the Magic they have had all kinds of injury issues. In this game they will be without Jonathan Isaac, Aaron Gordon, Evan Fournier, and Terrence Ross.
