Magic look to continue home dominance against Denver

The Magic come into tonight's game against Denver with a 15 game home winning streak against them, not having lost to the Nuggets in Orlando since March of 1992.

Denver (35-17) has won 8 of their last 10 games and is coming off a 99-82 win at Miami Tuesday, with Chauncey Billups scoring 23 points.

The Magic beat the Nuggets in Denver last month 106-88, but Carmelo Anthony was unavailable for that game recovering from a broken hand; he will play tonight.

The Magic's Rashard Lewis has been struggling in his last five games, averaging 12.8 ppg on 37.3% shooting, including 37.5% on three point attempts, and 66.7% free throw shooting, all well below his season averages.

The Magic, 20-5 at home, are 8 1/2 point favorites over the Nuggets.
