After Action Report
The Hornets squeaked past the Magic 102-101. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Magic rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
