Atlanta Hawks and Orlando Magic Set to Face Off in Final Regular Season Matchup
The Atlanta Hawks and Orlando Magic are set to face off for the fourth and final time in the 2024-25 regular season, with both teams having little at stake aside from continuity. The Hawks secured the No. 8 seed, while the Magic got a win over the Indiana Pacers.
Despite the Magic winning two of the previous three matchups, the Hawks have recently found a winning combination with players like Onyeka Okongwu and Mouhamed Gueye. The Hawks head into the final matchup on a two-game winning streak, with a potential third win against the Magic.
By securing the 8th seed, the Hawks have given themselves an easier path to the playoffs, only needing to win one game in the Play-In tournament. With a mix of young talent and veteran experience, the Hawks could surprise as a sneaky postseason team.
The Hawks have exceeded expectations this season and have the potential to make a deep playoff run with the right mix of players. With promising young stars and a veteran-laden bench, the Hawks are looking to end the season on a high note and prove themselves in the postseason.
