The Atlanta Hawks travel to Orlando Friday for their first meeting with the Magic since ousting them in the first-round of last season's playoffs.
Feb 10, 2012 - The Atlanta Hawks snapped a three-game home losing streak with a 97-87 win over the Indiana Pacers Wednesday night. Now the Hawks head back out on the road and will play six of their next seven away from Philips Arena beginning with a Friday night matchup against Dwight Howard and the Orlando Magic.
The last time they Hawks saw the Magic they were eliminating them from the first-round of the playoffs and setting into motion an uneasy situation surrounding Howard and his impending free agency. As trade rumors have swirled around Howard, the Magic (16-10) have been up and down virtually the entire season.
The timing could be bad for the Hawks as they go into this game without Jason Collins who played a big part in defending Howard in Atlanta's playoff win. The Hawks are also without Al Horford who was previously lost for the rest of the regular season and signed Erick Dampier to a 10-day contract on Thursday to help provide some depth to their frontcourt.

Location: Amway Center, Orlando, Florida
