After Action Report
In Orlando, the Magic shocked the Pacers 109-104. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Magic answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Pacers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. The Magic rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
