Projected starting lineup, injury report and how to watch Clippers vs Magic

The LA Clippers return to the hardwood for their third game in four nights when they take on the Orlando Magic on Wednesday. After back-to-back wins over the Utah Jazz and Western Conference-leading Golden State Warriors on Sunday and Monday, respectively, LA will look to earn their third straight victory over a young and talented Magic squad.

Their performances have been up and down this season, but the Clippers have consistently won with their defense. Steve Kerr praised the Clippers for controlling the tempo defensively after their win over the Warriors, and he also praised James Harden offensively for his style of play.

Fatigue can often set in for NBA teams when playing so many games in a short period of time, but the Clippers still need every win they can get to keep pace in a loaded Western Conference. The Magic are currently unstoppable. They have won their last six games in a row and have not lost since November 6. LA has a big task ahead of it.
