The Orlando Magic will welcome the New York Knicks for an NBA 2025-26 regular season clash on Saturday, November 22. The Magic will head into the game on the back of a four-game winning streak at home. They are aiming to end the run on a victorious note and improve their win tally at home to 7-3. In their most recent game, they got past the LA Clippers in a blowout fashion. Overall, the Magic are seeded in the eighth spot in the East, tied with the Atlanta Hawks in the seventh spot.

On the other hand, we have the New York Knicks, who are coming off a narrow win over the Dallas Mavericks. With the victory, the Knicks improved their tally to 9-5, securing them the fourth spot in the conference standings. While leading the court at home with a stunning 8-1 record, the Knicks are struggling on the road. They have been able to win only one of their five away games thus far this season.
