After Action Report

In Orlando, the Kings downed the Magic 118-108. The better team simply showed up tonight. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Kings carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Whispers of a Magic locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • Magic · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Kings · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
