The Utah Jazz hosts the Orlando Magic tonight at the Delta Center. Here's everything you need to know.
In this story:

ORLANDO - The Orlando Magic is wrapping up its four-game road trip tonight when it faces the Utah Jazz at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City.

The Magic started the road trip off strong with a win against the Portland Trail Blazers, but have lost two straight after defeats against the Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers in a back-to-back on Monday and Tuesday.

Tonight's game pits two of the tallest teams in the league against one another. Six of the projected 10 starters for both teams combined are 6-9 or taller. It should create for an interesting matchup in the rebounding department.

The Jazz will be playing its second game in as many nights after playing the Memphis Grizzlies at home on Wednesday. This means the Magic should have somewhat of an advantage, but it is up to the team to exploit it. The Magic faced the Lakers on Monday night with Los Angeles on the second night of a back-to-back, but was unable to finish the job. Perhaps Orlando's fortunes will change tonight and the team can finish its first road trip of the season on a high.
