After Action Report
The Magic squeaked past the Cavaliers 131-126. Magic torched the Cavaliers on the offensive end. The Magic played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Cavaliers couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Cavaliers locker-room rift aren't helping.

- Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Magic · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
