After Action Report
The Magic squeaked past the Pacers 115-110. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
