After Action Report
The 76ers took care of the Magic 137-119. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the 76ers cashed in. The 76ers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; 76ers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Magic locker-room rift aren't helping. The 76ers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- 76ers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
