After Action Report
In Orlando, the Magic upended the Rockets 117-93. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. Magic's old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
