The Orlando Magic are 3-0 following the trade deadline, pulling off wins against Brooklyn, Utah and Milwaukee. They’ll now face the Bucks again as they try and secure their longest win streak of the season. Bucks guard Ryan Rollins (foot) has been ruled out.
Orlando leads the Southeast Division as the All-Star break arrives despite a disappointing run through the first 50-plus games. They’re hoping to wrap up a sweep against a team missing star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, who wasn’t traded last week and is now looking to return before February’s end to help his team grab a play-in spot.
The Magic will be looking for their fourth consecutive victory, having rallied past the Jazz 120-117 on Saturday, aided in part by their opponent’s impressive tank job.
Milwaukee had dropped six of seven before posting wins over the Bulls, Pelicans and Pacers on its recent homestand. The Bucks recorded their second-highest scoring output of the season in a 141-137 overtime win on Feb. 4 and then held Indiana to 99 in their most recent outing on Feb. 6, marking the first time since Jan. 4 and just the fourth time all season in which they held a team under the century mark.
The Magic will be looking for their fourth consecutive victory, which would be their longest of the season. It helps to be able to avoid Antetokounmpo who will miss his eighth straight contest following his latest calf strain.
The Magic are 17-8 at home and have an 19-17 mark against Eastern Conference opposition. Milwaukee is 9-18 on the road and 16-18 against East foes.

Magic head coach Jamahl Mosley getting a fourth straight win before the break: “I believe that if you’re playing the right way, you feel it, and I think that’s more than momentum. That’s just knowing you’re doing the right thing at the right time, playing the right type of basketball.”
