After Action Report
The Magic ran roughshod over the Suns 131-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. The Suns rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
