Surging Magic hope to extend winning streak
Orlando (7-6) at Chicago (6-5) 8:30 pm EST
CHICAGO (Ticker) - Dwight Howard and the Orlando Magic look to
push their winning streak to five games on Tuesday when they
visit the Chicago Bulls at United Center.
Since dropping a 98-95 decision to the New Orleans Hornets on
November 19, the Magic have used a stout defense to reel off
their longest winning streak since March 15-23, 2003.
Howard collected 10 points and 10 rebounds Monday while Jameer
Nelson scored nine of his 16 points in the fourth quarter as
Orlando edged the Boston Celtics, 87-83.
The Magic have yielded an average of just 83 points during their
winning streak.
The Bulls enter Tuesday's contest hoping to extend a winning
stretch of their own.
Ben Gordon scored 18 points off the bench and fellow reserve
Othella Harrington added 16 as Chicago posted its third straight
win with a 94-89 triumph over the Houston Rockets on Saturday.
