Evan Fournier's numbers need to improve if Orlando are to have any remote chance of making it to to the playoffs, let alone make it big there. The French national has been putting up subpar scoring totals as of late, putting Vucevic on an isolated tough spot on the scoring front.

For this game, in particular, Evan played a team-high 31 minutes but could manage to contribute just 11 points on a miserable 5-of-14 shooting from the field. He attempted five shots from the deep and made none whatsoever.

In a game against one of the best teams in the league, Fournier left the offensive load solely on Vucevic's shoulders who pulled through for a team-high scoring night again with 27 points.

It's been more than two weeks since Fournier scored 20 points or more, and that needs to change if Magic doesn't want Vucevic's season to go down the train once and for all.
