As the Orlando Magic prepare to host the Brooklyn Nets on Friday, November 15th, 2025, they will be without their star forward Paolo Banchero, who is sidelined with a left groin strain. Magic head coach Jamahl Mosley has been tasked with finding a suitable replacement, and he has decided to start Tristan da Silva in Banchero's place.

The Magic have been on a roll lately, going 5-2 over their last seven games and ranking among the top 10 in both offensive and defensive ratings since October 30th. They are now looking to secure their first 3-game win streak of the season, having already defeated the Miami Heat earlier this month.

Meanwhile, the Nets have struggled mightily, with their current 3-game losing streak being the fourth-longest in the Eastern Conference. They will be searching for their first victory since defeating the Indiana Pacers on November 5th, as they look to turn their season around on the road against the surging Magic.
