(Sports Network) - The Washington Wizards will shoot for their third straight win when they close out a brief homestand tonight versus the Orlando Magic at the Verizon Center.
The Wizards have won two straight and four of their last five games, including Sunday's 101-84 triumph over the New Orleans Hornets in the opener of the homestand. Antawn Jamison scored a game-high 28 points and pulled down nine rebounds to lead the way.
DeShawn Stevenson added 16 points and dished out a team-high five assists for the Wizards, who have won two straight at home and own a 17-12 record at the Verizon Center this season. Stevenson (knee) and guard Roger Mason (hamstring) are both probable against Orlando.
Meanwhile, the Southeast Division-leading Magic are on the road tonight where they own a 21-12 mark this season. They have won two straight overall and five of the last six games, including Tuesday's 102-87 victory over the Toronto Raptors at Amway Arena.
Hedo Turkoglu scored 24 points, dished out eight assists and grabbed seven rebounds to lead Orlando, which has won five straight and six of its last eight home games. Rashard Lewis poured in 22 points and Dwight Howard added 19 points and 14 boards in a winning effort.
After tonight's game Orlando will open a three-game homestand versus Golden State, Atlanta and the Los Angeles Clippers. On the injury front for the Magic, guard Keyon Dooling (foot) missed Tuesday's game and is doubtful against the Wizards.
Orlando and Washington are playing the second of four matchups this season on Wednesday night. The Magic won the first meeting, 94-82, on November 3 at the Verizon Center. Turkoglu notched 25 points, eight assists and seven rebounds for Orlando, which has won five of the last eight contests in the series.
