The struggling Los Angeles Clippers continue a season-long seven-game road trip on Thursday when they visit the rejuvenated Orlando Magic.
Orlando, which endured a rocky start to the season while losing four of its first five games, comes into Thursday's contest a winner in four of the last five. The Magic rebounded from their lone hiccup in that stretch, a 117-113 overtime loss at Houston on Sunday, with a 121-113 victory at home over Golden State on Tuesday.
Desmond Bane stepped up in the continued absence of Paolo Banchero, scoring 23 points with five steals. Anthony Black added 21 points off the bench, providing additional offensive punch on a night when season-long leading scorer Franz Wagner shot just 7 of 17 from the floor and 0-of-3 from beyond the arc.
