Orlando has gone 24-4 since dropping its first two games, and has won 11 of its last 12, with the only blemish a last-second loss in Phoenix.

Orlando's average margin of victory during its seven-game winning streak has been 15.9 points, and it rolled to a 118-94 victory at Minnesota on Saturday.

The Pistons, meanwhile, have won three in a row, and they got through their most recent game without leading scorer Richard Hamilton, who aggravated a groin injury in a 90-88 victory over Oklahoma City on Friday.

Hamilton's status is uncertain tonight, but if he's out the Magic won't miss him. Hamilton scored 23.6 points per game in the playoffs last season against Orlando. Bet on basketball with Bodog today.
