The Orlando Magic will try to extend their winning streak to three games as they host the Chicago Bulls at the Amway Center in the NBA. Tip-off is on April 8, 2015 at 7 p.m. ET.
Despite already being eliminated from the playoff race, the Magic are continuing to play hard as they develop their young stars.
With a 24-53 record, they still have a big margin over the bottom two teams in the Philadelphia 76ers and New York Knicks.
They also are on a two-game win streak with wins over the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Milwaukee Bucks.
In their 97-90 win over the Bucks, Tobias Harris had a big game as he scored 23 points while shooting 53 percent from the field. Nikola Vucevic was also highly efficient on the field, shooting 59 percent on the night as he scored 20 points in the game.
Meanwhile, the Bulls are third in the East and have a 46-31 record. However, they have dropped two of their last three games, including a recent loss to their rivals the Cleveland Cavaliers.
In between those losses is an 88-82 win over the Detroit Pistons.
Pau Gasol led the team in scoring with 26 points in the victory, while also completing a double-double with 10 rebounds in 34 minutes on the floor. Jimmy Butler overcame a poor shooting game to still contribute 18 points, while rookie Nikola Mirotic had 11 points and six rebounds off the bench.
Orlando and Chicago have already met three times so far this season, with the Bulls leading the series 2-1. Their most recent meeting was in Florida where the Bulls won 98-97 with Butler and Gasol combining for 52 points to overcome Orlando's balanced scoring of six players finishing with double digits. Derrick Rose was still present in that win, but only scored 10 points while shooting 4-of-14 from the field.
