Dwight Howard is the Orlando Magic’s lone All-Star this season, and the Milwaukee Bucks know all about the center’s exploits. Orlando is hoping they can begin capitalizing on his production again.Howard looks to help the Magic rebound from another overtime defeat Saturday night when they try to continue their success against the Bucks. Howard is averaging 20.9 points and an NBA-leading 15.4 rebounds, so it’s not surprising that he’ll represent the Magic (16-11) when they host the All-Star game later this month. Orlando, though, hasn’t been able to capitalize on his strong play recently, losing twice on a three-game homestand with both defeats coming in overtime.Howard is averaging 25.3 points and 18.7 boards in that stretch, including 18 and 18, respectively, in Friday’s 89-87 overtime defeat to Atlanta. “We just didn’t play very well, that’s the bottom line,” coach Stan Van Gundy said. “We didn’t play very well, but we stuck in there … We just didn’t get it done in the end.” Howard’s presence in the paint has made a dramatic difference for the Magic when they face the Bucks (12-14). The Magic have won 10 of the last 12 meetings with Milwaukee, and Howard is averaging 23.6 points and 13.6 rebounds in those victories. He was out for the two defeats due to an injury and an illness.
