Fultz was the first overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft by the Philadelphia 76ers, but was traded to the Magic in 2019. 

The Magic come into the game as the 15th seed in the Eastern Conference with a 19-53 record in the 72 games that they have played in so far this season. 

Last year, they traded away veterans such as Aaron Gordon and Nikola Vucevic and entered into a rebuilding mode.
