Miami Heat vs Orlando Magic

Just a season ago, the Orlando Magic were looking like one of the worst teams in the NBA. Finishing the 2014-15 season just 25-57, Orlando’s young talent seemed to need some sort of veteran leadership or a vast improvement to even make the Magic competitive in 2015-16. Now that Orlando is 17-12 through the first 29 games of the year, it is just eight wins away from last year’s total.

Nikola Vucevic leads Orlando in points with 16.7 per game as well as rebounds with 8.7 per contest. The young center is turning out to be one of the most consistent big men in the league and the Magic have been thriving with him playing well. This youthful team is going to be good for years to come, so the league better watch out.

In a post-Christmas Day in-state battle, the Miami Heat and Orlando Magic will be fighting for bragging rights. Miami is led by the ever-reliable Dwyane Wade who is averaging 18.5 points and 4.4 assists per game. Chris Bosh is the second leg of the former “Big Three” which also had LeBron James and he’s been playing well this year, scoring 17.6 points and grabbing 7.9 rebounds per game.

Miami is in third place in the Eastern Conference, just a half-game ahead of Orlando and only 2.5 games out of first place in the conference. This team is looking good enough to take down the Cleveland Cavaliers in the East.
