Orlando Magic
The Magic showed some heart but still lost in Portland on Friday night. Aaron Gordon made his return after missing the previous two games with a concussion and then he strained his calf in the second quarter. He left the game, did not return and could miss some time, based on the morning-after chatter. It’s deflating for a team that’s already without Evan Fournier, Jonathan Isaac and Terrence Ross.

So while the Grizzlies are really bad, as well as the Hawks, there isn’t a team I would pick the Orlando Magic to beat right now. They are basically relying on Jonathan Simmons and Nikola Vucevic to carry the scoring load. Mario Hezonja is starting again, eliciting some bad memories.

A month ago, things were just starting to get away from the Magic after its exciting start. This just feels like a team that is not going to have much fight left to try and win games down the stretch. Things could get ugly, as usual.
Detroit Pistons
Detroit seems to be free from its struggles that plagued it for the last two weeks. The Pistons got off the schnide with a win in Atlanta. Then they went to Indiana last night and got a legit road win against a divisional foe.
Avery Bradley missed the game but Luke Kennard got the start in his place. Stanley Johnson came off the bench for the second game in a row and played well, scoring 13 points. It prompted the Detroit Free Press to suggest on Saturday morning that he may be better suited for that role going forward.

Johnson’s athleticism can’t be questioned. And he has some shooting ability and overall offensive talent. But he doesn’t get consistent looks as a starter, something he can do coming off the bench.
Meanwhile, Bradley is questionable on Sunday with an abductor strain. He might miss another game but it shouldn’t keep it out much longer than this one, if even.
