After Action Report
The Cavaliers handled the Magic 117-102. Ugly basketball, but the Cavaliers did just enough. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Magic couldn't shake the cold spell. The Cavaliers locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
