ORLANDO – Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon came into Friday having scored at least 20 points in three straight games for the first time in his five-year NBA career. Not surprisingly, the Magic won all three of those games as Gordon’s play is usually a barometer of success for the Magic.
Gordon had 21 points against Cleveland last Thursday, 22 against Atlanta on Sunday and he poured in another 20 points on Wednesday against New Orleans – all lopsided Magic victories. In those three games, Gordon made 48.9 percent of his field goals (23 of 47) and 52.
