After Action Report
The Magic squeaked past the 76ers 102-100. The 76ers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Magic. The Magic played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's 76ers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

- 76ers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Magic · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
