After Action Report
The Magic squeaked past the Raptors 129-127 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. The Magic came in with something to prove after a loss; Magic's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Raptors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
