After Action Report
The Magic ran roughshod over the 76ers 116-87. The better team simply showed up tonight. Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Magic. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. The Magic rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
