Featured Game | Los Angeles Clippers vs. Orlando Magic
Los Angeles has taken advantage of its five-game homestand, winning four games against the Grizzlies, Raptors, Knicks and Warriors. The Clippers withstood 50 points from Stephen Curry on Wednesday, as Kawhi Leonard scored 30 points and center Ivica Zubac posted a double-double with 19 points and 16 rebounds. They have used their four-game hot streak to move into fifth place in the Western Conference.
Russell Westbrook nearly finished with a triple-double against Golden State, recording 15 points, nine rebounds and seven assists. Orlando has lost five of its last six games and is midway through a four-game road trip, making this a difficult scheduling spot against a rested opponent. The Clippers have won eight of their last nine home games against the Magic, who have only covered the spread four times in their last 12 games.
Orlando led for most of the first half in its narrow loss to Phoenix on Thursday, covering the 8-point spread in the 116-113 final. Point guard Markelle Fultz had 25 points, nine assists and seven rebounds, while guard Franz Wagner added 16 points and 10 rebounds. Fultz missed the first 21 games of the campaign due to a toe injury, but he has scored 20-plus points three times this month.
The Magic are led by Rookie of the Year favorite Paolo Banchero, who is averaging 20.1 points per game. He led Orlando to a 116-111 overtime win against the Clippers when these teams met on Dec. 7, scoring 23 points. Leonard, who is averaging 23.8 points and 6.4 rebounds per game for Los Angeles, will sit out on Saturday to manage a knee injury.
