MAGIC - CAVALIERS PREVIEW

 

ESPN GO.com

Sunday, April 7, 2013

 

The Cavs will try to avoid a season high-tying sixth straight home loss and hand the Orlando Magic their worst road losing streak in seven years Sunday night.

 

The Cavs want to take (a 97-91 victory at Boston on Friday) momentum back to Quicken Loans Arena, where they're winless since March 12 versus Washington.

 

That's where the Magic (19-58) will close a five-game trip and try to end their second 10-game road losing streak of 2013. They haven't had a longer one since dropping a franchise-record 16 straight road games during the 2005-06 season.

 

Six of the losses during the current road skid have been by single digits, including Friday's 87-86 defeat to Chicago. Orlando led by eight in the final minute of the third quarter before suffering its 45th loss in 52 games.

 

Cavs point guard Kyrie Irving, shooting 9 for 36 over the last two games, could see plenty of Beno Udrih with Jameer Nelson questionable due to an ankle injury.

 

Udrih has is averaging 19.5 points and 8.3 assists while starting each game on the trip in place of Nelson. He scored a season-high 27 on Friday.

 

"He directs us on offense, but with him being a veteran, it's easy for him to pick out spots where he can score and be efficient," said Jones, who averages 3.7 points but has 22 over the last two games.

 

These teams will meet for the first time since Cleveland's 118-94 victory in Orlando on Feb. 23. The Cavs had ended a 10-game skid in this series -- and handed the Magic a season-worst 12th straight defeat -- in the previous matchup in Cleveland, winning 119-108 on Feb. 8.
