ORLANDO - The Orlando Magic (14-25) kickstarts a five-game road trip tonight in San Francisco against the defending NBA champion Golden State Warriors (20-19).

The Magic look to sweep the season series with a victory tonight after winning the first meeting between the two teams in Orlando on Nov. 3. This time, however, both teams look a bit different. The Warriors will play without Stephen Curry, who has been dealing with a shoulder injury for weeks. Meanwhile, the Magic is playing a bunch of players who didn't see the floor last time, including Cole Anthony and Markelle Fultz.
