After Action Report
The Magic held off the Lakers 104-95. The Lakers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Magic. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Magic. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. 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 · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
