After Action Report
The Magic survived the Lakers 105-103. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Magic answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Magic's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. Survive-and-advance type win.

- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
