It is not often that you will come into February and two NBA teams have not played each other, so much smaller two teams in the same department, but when Magic and Hawks play tonight, it will be for the first time this season. Both teams have been injured by injuries this season, but both teams are still in violation of a top six seeds in the eastern conference. Entering tonight’s game is Hawks only half a game behind Orlando to the No. 8 place in the east. With only two more matches before the All-Star break, Hawks are looking to continue to build speed.

Since the trade deadline, Hawks have been 2-0, but wins have come against a bucks team without Giannis and Wizards. While Orlando is not one of the elite teams in the NBA, they have a tough defense and will not be an easy opponent. While injuries are mostly blame, the magic has gone from being close to the top of the conference to losing 10 of their last 13 games. This would be a big victory for Hawks if they were to be able to pull it out.

Trae Young undoubtedly plays his best basketball in the season on the way into tonight’s game. Young has scored at least 32 points in four of its last five games and has had no less than seven assists in the last six games. Young wants his hands full tonight with the Orlando defense, but he plays well on his way into tonight’s game.

When we talk about playing well, Dyson Daniels becomes a special all-round player. Daniels is known for his elite defense, but he average 17.4 ppg, 6.6 RPG and 6.4 Acts in February. The big question for him will be the one he guarded tonight with Jalen Suggs who will unlikely to play.

When we talk about playing well, # 1 Pick Zaccharie Risacher begins to show why the Hawks chose him with the first choice.

Risacher missed almost two weeks with an injury and hadn’t shot well from three this season. However, the last six matches have been different for Risaches. He scored 30 points on 11-14 shooting in a game of vs Cavs, scored 17 points in a loss vs Indiana, 17 in a win over Detoit, 13 in a win over Milwaukee, and last night he had 18 points in a win over The guide.

Georges Niang debuted on Saturday against Washington and did not disappoint. He scored 16 points and shot 4-7 from three, giving Hawks some much needed distance and shooting ability.

Onyeka Okongwu did not have his best game on Saturday against Washington and will have to play better tonight. He had six points and five rebounds in 26 minutes.

The benchrotation included Caris Liver, Larry Nance, Ternance Mann and Vit Krejci on Saturday, but Clint Capela is not on the injury report right now. He wasn’t on the injuries report that led into Saturday’s game he didn’t play in. Will Capela make his return acn tonight against the magic? It would give the hawks a much needed boost in rebounding and edge protection.

Liver played only 15 minutes on Saturday due to having five errors, but will be looking to make more influence tonight. Nance scored 14 and Krejci had an almost triple double from the bench with 12 points, 8 rebounds and seven assists. Krejci shoots 48% from three in February.

Trae Young (Right Achilles Tendinitis) is likely, but the rest of Hawks Injury Report is pure. Clint Capela is not listed on the injuries, but he was not listed until yesterday’s game against the wizards. He was inactive for the game.

According to Fanduel SportsbookOrlando is a 5.5 -point favorite in tonight’s game, and over/under is set to 220.5.
