After Action Report
The Pistons pulled away from the Magic 126-116. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Magic answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Magic's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
