The Orlando Magic are heading west for the first time this season. Monday night, the team tips off a three-game road trip with a date with the Phoenix Suns. Tipoff is set for 9 p.m. ET inside the Footprint Center.

Orlando is looking to mirror their home success away from the Kia Center. So far this year, Orlando is 7-0 at home and 1-6 everywhere else, and it's been nearly a month since the one – an opening night victory at Miami. But after sweeping a five-game homestand prior to this trip, the Magic have belief they can make their game-altering defense travel and that results will follow.

Phoenix entertains the Magic on the second night of a back-to-back on Monday. As are most around the league, the Suns are dealing with injury concerns to begin the season – a calf strain to Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal each factoring into their recent results. That left just Devin Booker as the only available All-Star to contend with Minnesota on Sunday, and his 44 points weren't enough to pull off a road victory over last year's West finalists. Julius Randle's at-the-buzzer three said so.
