The shorthanded Orlando Magic are back in New York Monday night for their fourth and final regular season matchup with the Knicks this season. Tipoff from Madison Square Garden is at 7:30 p.m. ET.

Orlando is on the second night of a home-away back-to-back. Sunday's loss to Utah was one of their ugliest results of the season, and it dropped them to 21-16. They still sit fourth in the Eastern Conference.

A spot ahead of them is New York, 24-12, who hasn't played since Saturday's loss to the Bulls in Chicago. They've beaten the Magic in all three prior meetings this season – once in MSG and twice in the Kia Center.

All four matchups have come in the span of just 34 days.
