After Action Report
The Magic snuck past the Pistons 115-112 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Magic's outside barrage was a constant threat. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
