After Action Report
The Magic knocked off the Raptors 121-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. The Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Magic answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
