Raptors and Magic Battle In Prime Time Matchup
The Toronto Raptors take on the Orlando Magic in an NBA seeding game in Orlando on Wednesday night.

The Raptors (48-18) have been exceeding expectations all season, and nothing has changed within the Orlando bubble. Toronto heads into Wednesday's contest having cemented their status as the Eastern Conference's No. 2 seed by recording victories in each of their first three seeding games, with their most recent success coming at the expense of the Miami Heat by a 107-103 score on Monday afternoon. Fred VanVleet led the way for the Raptors with 36 points, adding five rebounds, four assists and one steal. Pascal Siakam furnished 22 points, six boards, three assists and one steal. Serge Ibaka provided 15 points and six rebounds. Kyle Lowry managed 14 points, eight boards, five assists, two blocks and one steal.

The Raptors will continue without Patrick McCaw (knee) on Wednesday.

The Magic (32-36) have enjoyed a solid start in the bubble themselves, although they saw their brief two-game win streak come to an end their last time on the floor against the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday evening. Orlando, fighting to secure a postseason spot, dropped a 120-109 decision to the Indiana Pacers. Nikola Vucevic led the Magic with 24 points, adding 10 rebounds, two assists and one steal. Aaron Gordon and Terrence Ross produced matching 20-point tallies while pulling down seven and three rebounds, respectively. James Ennis supplied 12 points, four rebounds, two assists and one block. Markelle Fultz contributed 10 points off the bench.

The Magic will likely be without Michael Carter-Williams (foot) for Wednesday's contest.

Wednesday's game marks the fourth and final meeting between the teams this season. The Pacers hold a 3-0 series lead, having notched 104-95, 113-97 and 90-83 wins on Oct. 28, Nov. 20 and Nov. 29, respectively.
