ORLANDO -- The Orlando Magic have two more opportunities to build momentum heading into the NBA All-Star break.
The first of those chances comes on Monday, when the Magic (13-21) host the Dallas Mavericks (16-16) at 7 p.m. ET.
While the Magic have put forth some staunch defensive efforts over the last two weeks, their offensive struggles have made it difficult to string together wins. After notching three straight victories, and taking four of five outings, Orlando has dropped three consecutive contests.
“We need to split or win two here, so that we don’t build ourselves too big of a hole coming back,” Magic Head Coach Steve Clifford explained.
