Orlando Magic

ORLANDO - The Orlando Magic hopes to get back to its winning ways tonight when it takes on the Chicago Bulls at the United Center.

The Magic lost last night to the Brooklyn Nets in its In-Season Tournament opener by 20 points after building a lead in the first half for the ninth time in 10 games. Now, Orlando will hope to put its fourth-quarter woes in the dust against Chicago.

The Bulls come into the game at 4-7, desperately looking to steer the ship in the right direction. Zach LaVine became the subject of trade conversations earlier this week after a report surfaced that the two sides could be open for a deal. A win tonight for Chicago could be a step to prevent those trade talks from happening sooner.
