After Action Report
In Detroit, the Magic stunned the Pistons 119-95. The Magic got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Magic carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Pistons played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
