After Action Report

The Magic snuck past the Clippers 100-95. The Magic won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks; second-chance points piled up for the Clippers. 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.

  • Clippers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
