What to Know

The Orlando Magic’s homestand continues as they prepare to take on the Chicago Bulls at 6 p.m. ET Jan. 23 at Amway Center. Given that these two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this matchup.

The contest between the Magic and the Los Angeles Lakers this past Friday was not a total blowout, but with Orlando falling 116-105 at home, it was darn close to turning into one. Orlando’s loss shouldn’t obscure the performances of shooting guard Jalen Suggs, who had 22 points and nine assists, and power forward Wendell Carter Jr., who had 19 points along with five rebounds.

Meanwhile, Chicago was close but no cigar this past Friday as they fell 94-90 to the Milwaukee Bucks. Point guard Coby White just could not get things rolling his way, playing for 37 minutes but putting up just seven points on 3-for-15 shooting.

Orlando is expected to lose this next one by 3.5. Now might not be the best time to take Orlando against the spread since they’ve let down bettors for the past four consecutive games.

The Magic are now 8-39 while the Bulls sit at 28-16. A pair of offensive stats to keep an eye on: Orlando has only been able to knock down 42.70% percent of their shots, which is the third lowest field goal percentage in the league. Chicago’s offense has more to brag about, as they they rank third in the league when it comes to field goal percentage, with 47.30% on the season. We’ll see if their 4.60% advantage translates to a win.
