Game Preview
On Thursday, November 3rd, the Orlando Magic square off against the defending champions, the Golden State Warriors, at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida. The Warriors are aiming to defend their title and break a three-game losing streak that has made their unexpectedly bad start of the season even worse, while the home team seeks to improve their performance this year and move up from their current position.
The Warriors currently hold 12th place in the Western Conference with a record of 3 wins and 5 losses. So far, they have struggled to find their rhythm. Steve Kerr’s men had a strong start to their most recent game against the Heat but ultimately fell short, 116-109. Stephen Curry finished with 23 points, 13 rebounds, and 13 assists to take over as the game’s top scorer. The Warriors have performed better offensively at home this season, scoring 124.8 points per game compared to 110.3 points per game away from home; this fact can potentially play against them in this upcoming fixture.
The Orlando Magic, in a similar position, hold a record of 1 victory and 7 defeats, which places them in the last position of the Eastern Conference. Although nobody expected the out-of-form squad to be in the lead at this point, they have had an exceptionally poor start. Without a doubt, Paolo Banchero, the brilliant rookie, is the highlight of the season. Even though shooting threes is not the 19-year-old’s strongest skill (29%), the rest of his attributes make him a prospective basketball player. In their most recent match against the Thunder, the Magic had the game in hand by the conclusion of the third quarter. Before the fourth quarter, they held a three-point lead, but a masterful play by the Thunder in the last phase of the game knocked them off balance, and they had no time to recover, falling 116-108. With 12 rebounds, Wendell Carter Jr. pulled down 30 points, making him Orlando’s highest scorer.
There is no clear favorite to win this one. Although the Warriors have a slight advantage in the odds and it is crucial for them to secure a victory away from home, they need to keep in mind that any team can be intimidating, especially in the presence of the home fans.
