The Orlando Magic travel to Beantown to face the Boston Celtics at TD Garden on Wednesday.

The Magic (22-28) finally picked up a win on Monday, beating the Charlotte Hornets, 112-100. That snapped a five-game losing streak for Orlando and a career-best 14 assists from Markelle Fultz was obviously a huge boost in that victory. Getting a top-pick like that for almost nothing has been a huge boost for this organization and if he can return to the player that we saw in college, it could truly be a franchise-changing trade. Before that losing streak, the Magic were creeping close to .500 and putting themselves in a great position to reach the postseason. They currently sit in eighth, four games up on the Chicago Bulls in ninth. They're also just one game back of the Brooklyn Nets in seventh and many believe that this is the better team of the two with Kyrie Irving sidelined.

The Celtics (34-15) come into this matchup winning seven of their last eight games. What makes that all the more impressive is the fact that they're currently without Kemba Walker. The All-Star point guard continues to deal with an ankle issue and it says a lot about the depth of this team. Players like Jaylen Brown, Gordon Hayward and Jayson Tatum have been great all year and they've been even better with Kemba off the floor. Where they're really dangerous is on the defensive end though, allowing the second-fewest points in the NBA. Playing stifling defense like that will allow them to succeed no matter how shorthanded they are and it's scary to think how good they'll be when at full boar.

Boston won their first game over Orlando, 109-98, on January 24. That snapped a three-game winning streak for the Magic in this series, sweeping the season series last year.
