Grant Hill makes his homecoming debut in Orlando tonight, as the Suns face the Magic a day after stealing one in Miami. The Suns have not had great luck so far with back-to-backs, and might be without Raja Bell who sprained his ankle on one of Shaq's "size 22's" last night. Paul Coro writes in his blog that Raja is questionable for the game. If he has to miss, that will likely mean Leandro Barbosa will get his first start of the season. The Suns do have some momentum coming into this game, having successfully executed one of their patented last-minute, come from behind victories last night in Miami. Steve Nash continues to shoot a ridiculous percentage from the three-point line, going 6-of-7 last night and 7-of-10 the game before. He's shooting the three-ball at a 62% clip so far! Shawn Marion grabbed 24 boards in last night's game. That brings him to a 13.7 average for the season thus far. Let's hope both of these guys saved a little of that for tonight!

We'll have one more guest recap tonight, this one from jasonsuns1, and I will be back "on the job" for the two games next week.
The Suns will be in for a tough one tonight if their last meeting with the Magic was any indication:
