The Orlando Magic head to TD Garden on Sunday for a 6:00 PM ET regular-season finale that still carries real weight for one side. Orlando enters at 45-36, tied with Toronto in the East standings but sitting seventh because it loses the tiebreaker, so this game matters if the Magic want any shot at climbing out of the play-in. Boston is 55-26, locked into the No. 2 seed in the East, and coming off a huge shooting night in its win over New Orleans. The broadcast is set for ESPN.

Portland has won three straight home games and just handled a playoff-level game with real urgency against Los Angeles, closing that one with a dominant fourth
