The Magic picked and rolled their way to an easy, easy win over the Pacers.
Dwight Howard scored 30 points and grabbed 13 rebounds in leading the Orlando Magic to a 107-94 victory against the Indiana Pacers on Sunday. J.J. Redick added 18 points and nine assists for Orlando, while Paul George led Indiana with 22 points and eight boards.
The Orlando Magic still don't know if they'll trade center Dwight Howard before Thursday's deadline, a new report says, as the team continues its efforts to convince Howard to remain in Orlando after this season.
The Orlando Magic may have to replace both of their starting wing players Sunday, due to Hedo Turkoglu's suspension and an injury to Jason Richardson. Assuming Richardson cannot play and J.J. Redick takes his place, who should replace Turkoglu in the lineup?
The Orlando Magic won't have Hedo Turkoglu available for Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers, as the league has suspended him for one game without pay after he made contact with referee Karl Lane while protesting a call in the Magic's 99-94 victory against the Chicago Bulls on Thursday.
