After Action Report
In San Antonio, the Magic edged the Spurs 94-88. Ugly basketball, but the Magic did just enough. Fresh off a statement win, the Magic stayed locked in; Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Spurs locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Magic · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
