The players to watch
In tonight’s game, the home team Los Angeles Lakers will be up against the visiting Orlando Magic. The Lakers are coming off a tough loss to the Portland Trail Blazers, while the Magic are coming off a blowout victory against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

There are a lot of great games scheduled for tonight, but here are the match-ups to focus on:
-Boston Celtics vs. Indiana Pacers: This is a battle between two of the best teams in the Eastern Conference. The Celtics have been on a roll lately, winning eight of their last ten games. The Pacers are no slouch either, though, and this should be a great game to watch.
-Houston Rockets vs. Minnesota Timberwolves: This is a battle between two of the best young teams in the NBA. The Rockets are led by James Harden, who is one of the best scorers in the league. The Timberwolves are led by Karl-Anthony Towns, who is one of the best young big men in the league. This should be a great game to watch.
The keys to the game
The keys to the game are simple. The Charlotte Hornets are coming into this game hot, having won 8 of their last 10. They’ll be looking to continue their success against the Philadelphia 76ers, who have struggled as of late, losing 6 of their last 10.
The Hornets are led by point guard Kemba Walker, who is averaging 24.8 points and 5.5 assists per game. He’ll be up against a tough 76ers defense, led by Joel Embiid. The 76ers will also need to keep an eye on Charlotte’s shooting guard Jeremy Lamb, who is averaging 18 points per game.
On the other side, the Sixers will be looking to get back on track behind the play of their star center, Joel Embiid. He’s averaging 27 points and 13 rebounds per game and will need to continue his strong play if the Sixers want to win tonight. They’ll also need some help from their point guard Ben Simmons, who is averaging 16 points, 8 assists, and 8 rebounds per game.
The game will be played at 7pm ET at the Charlotte Hornets’ arena.
