The Brooklyn Nets will host the Orlando Magic on Friday night. Here is how to watch this Eastern Conference NBA game online via live streaming.

The NBA is back and we are still in the first week of the 2017-18 NBA season. There are 10 games on the slate for Friday night in the NBA. One of those games will be between a pair of Eastern Conference teams in the Orlando Magic (1-0) and the Brooklyn Nets (0-1).

Tipoff from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York will be at 7:30 p.m. ET on Oct. 20. FOX Sports Florida will carry the Magic telecast in the Greater Orlando area. The YES Network will carry the Nets telecast in the Tri-State Area. The available live streams can be found on NBA League Pass and on FuboTV.

Orlando is coming off a big first win of the season over the Southeast Division rival Miami Heat on Wednesday night, 116-109. The Magic are still probably a few years away from being a playoff team, but getting a first win at home over a division rival is a good start to hopefully a new era of Magic basketball.

Brooklyn suffered its first loss of the season in Indianapolis in a barn-burner with the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night, 140-131. Defense was clearly optional in that game, but putting up 130 points in a season debut could be a sign of good things to come for Kenny Atkinson’s rebuilding team in Brooklyn.

According to SportsBook Review, the Nets will be laying 1.5 points at home to the visiting Magic. The associated moneylines for this game are Brooklyn -125 and Orlando +105. This game’s over/under comes in at a combined 224.5 points.

It’s interesting that the Nets will be favored in this game. Yes, they are the home team, but Brooklyn has been the worst team in basketball for over a year now. Could the team be improved this year? Yes, but we need to see them win a game before they can be favored in one.

Probably take the Magic getting points to win in a slight road upset. Do keep in mind that Nets point guard Jeremy Lin will be out for the year with an injury suffered in Indianapolis on Wednesday. That could help the Magic get a clutch road victory en route to 2-0.
