SF Jeremy Richardson was re-signed by the Magic Thursday and is expected to be available for tonight's game.
*Suns UPDATE: Phoenix, coming off a loss Wednesday night to the Lakers in L.A., is struggling under new Coach Terry Porter and made a trade on Wednesday. The Suns acquired G Jason Richardson, F Jared Dudley and a 2010 second-round pick for G Raja Bell, F Boris Diaw and PG Sean Singletary. . . . C Shaquille O'Neal (15.4 ppg, 8.4 rpg) is expected to attend the funeral of his great-grandmother today in North Carolina. It is unknown whether he will return in time for tonight's game.
*KEY MATCHUP: With the trade and Shaq's status up in the air, the Magic can really only plan on trying to keep F Amare Stoudemire under control, likely using Rashard Lewis on him.
