It's on to Orlando to play the second of back-to-back games on Wednesday.

Suns are now 29-13 and have won their last three games in a row including winning at Miami on Tuesday.

Magic are 14-29 but they have only won one game in their last ten games.

They did beat the Nets on Friday but they have lost two games since.

The game will be televised on FSAZ.

Start time is listed at 5 p.m. Arizona time.

Cant look past these guys after tonight’s domination. With LeBron out, we gotta build a cushion in the division!

Totally agree. The Magic beat the Nets on Friday. Aaron Gordon scored 38 points.

However, after reading all the trade rumors I will be surprised if he plays.

Rumors are out there about Fournier or Gordon being traded. It will be interesting to see who plays tonight.

I wouldn’t mind seeing Dario get a couple “load management” nights off. Dude looks pretty run down lately and is such a difference maker when he’s got it going.

This is starting to concern me. In his last five games Saric only scored 2, 4, 2, 8 and 7 points. It looks like he needs some rest but the Suns only have Kaminsky behind Ayton if they do.

Suns really need to add a big man because this team is looking like a contender.

I forgot the Heat game was at 5 and missed it. I'll be ready today though.

I wouldn’t be too worried with Dario. He has such a high degree of skill and BBIQ. His issues lately are completely physical. He’s clearly not 100% and we know that BOTH of his feet have ankle issues. I think we should sit him for a bit to get his health back up.

The Suns need more than Frank Kaminsky as a backup center... nothing against Frank.

Suns need more size and depth against teams with bigger front lines.

I happened to turn on the Suns pregame early and saw the end of the Coyotes game and the shootout.

Pretty cool.

:yotes:

Ayton fouled across arms but no call.
