After Action Report
The Magic squeaked past the Wizards 102-98. Every possession went the Magic way. Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks; Wizards' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. The Magic rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
