After Action Report

The Bobcats snuck past the Magic 117-113. The Bobcats got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Magic carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one.

What tipped it

  • Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Magic · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Bobcats · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
