Charlotte Hornets vs. Orlando Magic: Play-by-play, highlights and reactions

Cody Taylor @CodyTaylorNBA
The officials gave Jalen Suggs a foul and LaMelo Ball after that last play – it resulted in a jump ball. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that. – 7:23 PM

Jalen Suggs tried to take a charge on LaMelo Ball but was whistled for the foul. He was slow to get off the court after taking a shot. – 7:21 PM

Good opportunity for Jalen Suggs to handle the ball a lot tonight. He’s coming along as a playmaker. Slowly, but surely, Suggs is figuring things out. – 7:19 PM

Orlando Magic PR @Magic_PR
The @Orlando Magic have now made at least one three-point field goal in 1,148 consecutive games, dating all the way back to March 17, 2007.
It stands as the fifth-longest active streak in the #NBA and also the fifth-longest streak in @NBAHistory.

Contrarian Gods + suspiciously short ML have kept me off the Hornets -7.5 vs. the Cole Anthony-less Magic. That’s respect, @JoeRaineri. I can see them sucking turkey legs bone dry, sipping on ambrosia and wrecking ML parlays – 6:11 PM

PJ Washington will be a game time decision. James Borrego said he’s not sure yet if Washington will play. He will go through pregame workouts and see where he’s at.
“He got a workout in yesterday,” Borrego said. “I liked his workout. He looked much more comfortable yesterday.” – 5:48 PM

Shams Charania @ShamsCharania
Sources: There’s optimism 76ers star Joel Embiid will return on Saturday vs. Minnesota following a three-week absence due to COVID-19. Embiid has been ramping up this week. If unable on Saturday, second game of home stand (Monday vs. Orlando) is possible. – 2:48 PM

JD Shaw @JShawNBA
NBA TV will now televise the Warriors-Pacers game on December 13, choosing to drop Bucks-Celtics. The network also picked up Hornets-Knicks on January 17 and dropped Spurs-Warriors on March 20. – 2:04 PM

Going to be an emotional trip for Vucevic … first, returning tonight after the Covid sidelined him, and then returning to Orlando on Friday – the place that raised him. – 1:59 PM
