Ty Lawson led the team with 23 points , as he was able to shoot 9 - for - 14 from the field and 3 - for - 5 from the three - point line . After recording only eight points against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday , this performance was a nice bounce back game for him . Arron Afflalo had a solid contribution of his own , scoring 17 points ( 7 - 13 FG , 0 - 2 3Pt , 3 - 6 FT ) , while adding six rebounds and three assists . He 's had the hot hand of late , as he 's averaging 23 points over his last four games . The Nuggets also saw their bench chip in as Nate Robinson recorded 13 points ( 1 - 6 FG , 1 - 1 3Pt ) . While he really struggled with his shot from the field , he forced his way to the line all game , converting on a perfect 10 - of - 10 from the free throw line . J.J. Hickson recorded a double - double off the bench with 11 points ( 4 - 5 FG , 3 - 4 FT ) and 10 rebounds as well . The Magic took advantage of Nuggets ' starting center Jusuf Nurkic , who is in his rookie season and was forced into the starting lineup after Timofey Mozgov was traded to the Cavaliers . They fed the ball to Nikola Vucevic all night , who finished with 20 points ( 8 - 18 FG , 4 - 6 FT ) and 11 rebounds in 34 minutes . It was his second 20 - point performance in a row , along with his second double - double in as many games . Victor Oladipo had a strong night offensively . He went 7 - for - 13 from the field and 3 - for - 4 from the free throw line to score 17 points , while also recording six assists . He also added three steals , after posting four on Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets . Coming off the bench , Evan Fournier stayed productive . He went 4 - for - 8 from the field and 2 - for - 5 from beyond the arc to score 14 points in 18 minutes . Tobias Harris did n't have the offensive numbers he 's come accustomed to this year , as he finished with only 12 points ( 5 - 13 FG , 2 - 3 3Pt , 0 - 1 FT ) and six rebounds . The Nuggets ' next game will be on the road against the Sacramento Kings on Friday , while the Magic will travel to Los Angeles to play the Lakers on Friday .
