Clinging to play-in hopes, Wizards host Magic

The Washington Wizards will continue their last-gasp playoff push against the visiting Orlando Magic on Friday.

The Wizards (34-42) have won two of their past three games to move to within two games of the Chicago Bulls (36-40) for the 10th -- and final -- playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. The Magic (32-44), who ended a three-game winning streak with a 113-108 loss at Memphis on Tuesday, are four games out of the last spot.

Washington, which has six games left, is coming off a 130-111 win over the visiting Boston Celtics on Tuesday behind Kristaps Porzingis' 32 points, 13 rebounds and six assists. Deni Avdija added a double-double with a career-high 25 points and 10 rebounds to go along with five assists, while Monte Morris finished with 19 points and nine assists.
