After Action Report

The 76ers handled the Magic 109-91. Ugly basketball, but the 76ers did just enough. 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the 76ers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Whispers of a Magic locker-room rift aren't helping. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Magic · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 76ers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
