Thunder-Magic Preview

The last time the Oklahoma City Thunder lost consecutive games they responded with one of their best stretches of the season.

The Thunder appear poised to get another run started Friday night when they visit the Orlando Magic, who are mired in another lengthy losing streak.

Oklahoma City (50-19) is coming off back-to-back losses for the first time in a month following a 114-104 setback against Denver on Tuesday and a 90-89 overtime defeat at Memphis on Wednesday.

Russell Westbrook's layup gave the Thunder a late one-point lead before Memphis center Marc Gasol tipped in the go-ahead score with less than a second left in a showdown between Western Conference contenders.

Kevin Durant finished with a game-high 32 points and Westbrook scored 20, but the pair combined to shoot 18 for 53. Kevin Martin added 17, but no other Thunder player scored more than seven.

"It was just one of those games, probably 10 of them a year, where nobody deserves to lose the game, but we were on the bad side of that," coach Scott Brooks said.

Brooks' club hadn't dropped two straight since suffering its only three-game skid of the season Feb. 12-20. Following those defeats, Oklahoma City went on to win 11 of 13 by an average of 13.5 points.

Oklahoma City, which trails San Antonio by 2 1/2 games for the West's top seed, has an opportunity to begin another hot streak as it opens a stretch of four straight against losing teams.

The sinking Magic (18-51) have lost 38 of 44 and suffered their fifth straight defeat Wednesday night, 106-94 at New York.

Tobias Harris and reserve Andrew Nicholson finished with 14 points apiece and Kyle O'Quinn added 12 and 14 rebounds off the bench as Orlando played without center Nikola Vucevic because of an illness.

"Guys came in and tried to fill in their roles," coach Jacque Vaughn said. "Some good things came from that game."

While his status is uncertain for Friday, Vucevic - averaging 12.4 points and 11.5 rebounds - could be a big loss considering he scored 21 and had 14 boards in a 117-104 defeat at Oklahoma City last Friday.

The Magic put a scare into the Thunder, rallying from a 27-point first-half deficit to get within four midway through the fourth quarter.

Jameer Nelson had 26 points and shot 5 of 12 from 3-point range, while Arron Afflalo scored 20 for the Magic.

Nelson and Afflalo, however, will try to bounce back after shooting a combined 3 for 16 - 1 for 8 from beyond the arc - on Wednesday.

The Magic shot 7 for 27 from 3-point range and were outrebounded 52-33 in Oklahoma City. That could be an area of concern again, especially if Orlando has to play without its top rebounder in Vucevic.

Durant led Oklahoma City with 26 points in the first meeting and has averaged 30.6 on 54.3 percent shooting in his last five games against the Magic.

After scoring 83 in regulation and finishing with a season-low 35.7 field goal percentage in Memphis, the Thunder should be in line for a better performance Friday. They put up a season-high 73 points in the first half and shot 55.3 percent overall last week against the Magic.

The Thunder stopped a seven-game losing streak in Orlando with a 105-102 win last March as Durant had 38 points and Westbrook scored 29.

Durant's 25 lift Thunder over Magic, 97-89

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) This was supposed to be the beginning of a relatively easy stretch for the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Locked in pursuit of San Antonio for the Western Conference's top playoff seed, the Thunder were looking forward to a few easy nights with four straight games against teams with losing records.

The Orlando Magic must have missed the memo.

The Thunder needed 25 points from Kevin Durant, including 11 in the fourth quarter, to hold off a short-handed, but inspired Magic team 97-89 on Friday night.

"That's what we have to hang our hat on is making plays on the defensive end," Durant said of Oklahoma City's late-game effort, which included holding Orlando without a field goal in the final 2:26. "We made big plays when we needed them."

Russell Westbrook added 19 points and Oklahoma City ended a two-game losing skid despite going just 5 for 21 from the 3-point line.

They entered the night trailing West-leading San Antonio by 2 1/2 games.

"We had two tough losses ... I give our guys a lot of credit," Thunder coach Scott Brooks said. "They picked themselves up and came into tonight with a good mindset. We got the win and we're moving on to the next game."

The Magic briefly took a one-point lead in the final period, but the Thunder hit eight of their final 10 free throws to help seal the victory.

Maurice Harkless led the Magic with a career-high 25 points, followed by Jameer Nelson with 16.

Orlando lost its sixth straight. They also lost starting shooting guard Arron Afflalo in the second quarter with a right hamstring injury.

"The first half, I think I was a completely different player in the first half than in the second half," said Harkless. "The first half I wasn't aggressive. ... When Arron went down I knew I had to step up and make plays, make things happen."

For a while it looked like Harkless might propel to the Magic to the upset.

After a sluggish first half, Orlando took its first lead since early in the first half, 78-76, on a jumper by Beno Udrih with 7:29 to play in the game.

The Thunder fought back and were leading by a point when Durant blocked a layup attempt by Tobias Harris and knocked down a 3-pointer on the other end to push their lead to 86-82.

Udrih hit a 3 to cut the deficit to a point again and following Kendrick Perkins' missed jumper the Magic tied it again on a free-throw by rookie Kyle O'Quinn.

The Thunder got blocks on Magic layup attempts on back-to-back possessions and broke the stalemate when Durant's 3 from the wing made it 89-86.

O'Quinn responded with a layup, but Durant hit 1 of 2 free-throws a few possessions later to give the Thunder a two-point cushion.

The Magic came up empty on their ensuing touch and Durant connected on a pair from the foul line to make it 92-88 with 39.1 seconds remaining.

Orlando turned it over out of a timeout, and the Thunder to closed things out at the free throw line.

O'Quinn made his first career start in place of center Nik Vucevic, who missed his second consecutive game with what Magic coach Jacque Vaughn said was a mild concussion.

Vucevic was injured during Orlando's loss Tuesday night at Indiana.

The Magic didn't get far into the game before losing Afflalo a few minutes into the second quarter.

Afflalo was hurt while chasing a loose ball and needed assistance from teammates walking off the floor. He did not return.

Oklahoma took advantage, leading by as many as 15 points in the first half by exploiting Orlando's lack of depth in the front court. The Magic were forced to go small at times, leading to several defensive breakdowns and layups for Oklahoma City.

Despite the loss, Magic coach Jacque Vaughn said he likes how his young team is closing the year.

"It's just an unbelievable overall effort from every guy," Vaughn said. "As a coach you want to be proud of your team and what they're doing. Tonight's effort typifies who we want to be."

NOTES: The Thunder improved to 15-4 in games played after a loss this season. ... With O'Quinn's start on Friday the Magic now have had 22 different starting lineups this season. "How many stages are in the Tour de France?" Vaughn said when asked about the latest incarnation of his lineup. "I'm trying to get there."... Before his concussion, Vucevic had started the first 68 games of the season and was the last Magic player to miss a start. Vaughn said his return is to be determined as he goes through the league's new concussion protocol. ... PGA golfer Bubba Watson, who is competing at this week's Arnold Palmer Invitational, was in attendance.

Notebook: Thunder 97, Magic 89

Dick Scanlon, for NBA.com
Posted Fri Mar 22, 2013 11:20 PM - Updated Fri Mar 22, 2013 11:20 PM

THE FACTS: Kevin Durant scored nine straight points during a fourth-quarter stretch in which the Thunder blocked four of five Orlando Magic shots and Oklahoma City pulled out a 97-89 victory.

Durant and Russell Westbrook scored 21 of the Thunder's 27 points in the fourth quarter as they broke a two-game losing streak and stretched Orlando's losing streak to six.

Westbrook scored 18 of his 19 points in the second half.

Maurice Harkless matched Durant's game-high 25 points. It was a career scoring high for the Magic rookie, who also had nine rebounds and a career-high four blocks.

Serge Ibaka finished with 14 points, 13 rebounds and five of the Thunder's 11 blocks.

The Thunder led by 15 points in the first half, but didn't take the lead for good until Durant's 3-pointer with 2:44 left.

QUOTABLE: "In the third quarter they got hot on us. I think we took their punch and were able to get some stops and make some big plays in the fourth."
-- Durant

THE STAT: The Thunder shot 10 free throws in the last 100 seconds of the game. The Magic shot 10 free throws all night.

ANOTHER STAT: During a stretch of the second quarter, the Magic played with Harkless, Andrew Nicholson, E'Twaun Moore, DeQuan Jones and Beno Udrih: Total years of NBA experience: nine, eight of them Udrih's.

TURNING POINT: Durant blocked a layup by Tobias Harris that would have given the Magic an 84-83 lead with 5:52 left, then nailed a 3-pointer at the other end.

HOT: Harkless had a big night from the inside and outside, shooting 11-for-18 including a couple of slick dunks and 2-of-3 from behind the arc.

NOT: Harris had major problems with the Thunder's long from line, shooting 3-for-17. Most of his misses were blocked or altered.

QUOTABLE II: "We missed a couple of layups. They got their hands on a lot of them. I know I missed a whole lot of easy shots that I normally make."
-- Harris.

QUOTABLE III: "I like the way we started. I liked the way we finished, with a defensive mindset. Every possession was intense and forused defensive basketball."
-- Thunder coach Scott Brooks

FANTASY SPOTLIGHT: Considering the Magic's injury problems, Harkless and Harris figure to be getting plenty of shots and points in their 12 remaining games.

ROOKIE WATCH: O'Quinn became the fourth rookie to start a game for the Magic this season.

NOTABLE: The Magic will play their first nationally televised game of the season Monday night against Miami on ESPN . . . Magic center Nikola Vucevic did not play because of a concussion he got Tuesday night . . . Magic guard Arron Afflalo went down with a hamstring injury early in the second quarter and did not return. The extent of the injury was not known immediately after the game.

UP NEXT: For the Thunder: Sunday vs. Portland, Wednesday vs. Washington, Friday @ Minnesota. For the Magic: Monday vs. Miami, Wednesday @ Charlotte, Friday vs. Washington.
