After Action Report
The Magic outlasted the Wizards 125-115. The tempo dragged the Wizards into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Magic's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Wizards' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
