The Milwaukee Bucks will have a chance to gain ground on stumbling playoff rivals and pick up a third straight win when they visit the Orlando Magic on Wednesday.
Holding a 2-0 lead in their four game season series, the Milwaukee Bucks will visit the Orlando Magic looking to pick up an important win for their playoff push.
With teams above them stumbling somewhat during a stretch in the schedule that’s allowing the Bucks to gain ground, Milwaukee is firmly back in the mix for some of the higher seedings in the East. Still, they will need to take care of business on Wednesday and over the rest of the season to have any real chance.
A good place to start would be carrying over many of the positives from Monday’s win in Memphis.

In particular, as the Bucks face the team that now includes John Hammond as a key decision-maker, not only will Brandon Jennings have a chance to build on his first game back with the Bucks in front of an old team on Wednesday, but in front of the general manager who drafted him too.
Although it may have seemed like another reunion could have been on the cards for this game, the Magic opted against keeping Rashad Vaughn to the end of his second 10-day contract with the team.
With all of that in mind, let’s take a closer look at the action ahead, and how things might play out for the Bucks on Wednesday night.
