After Action Report

The Magic squeaked past the 76ers 119-115. The Magic got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks; 76ers' positional balance gave them a synergy edge. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
