The Orlando Magic looks to stay hot tonight as they face the worst team in the Eastern Conference in a matchup with the Boston Celtics. Orlando won 94-89 at New York on Monday, three days after beating New Jersey 90-82. The Magic are in seventh place in the conference - a half-game ahead of the eighth spot.

The Magic are 12-24 away from home. Jameer Nelson hit a 3-pointer with 38 seconds left Monday. "It's a big win, not just because we're just a game apart in the loss column, (but) getting another road win," said Orlando coach Brian Hill. "They're all going to be big down the stretch here. Certainly though, with a team that we're battling in the standings, there is added significance." Nelson and Hedo Turkoglu each finished with 18 points while Dwight Howard, was held to 10 points but had 14 boards, five assists and four blocks. "Dwight's blocks were huge, but that's what All-Stars do," Hill said. "He stepped up when the game was on the line."
