After Action Report
In Orlando, the Magic held off the Wizards 97-91. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Magic couldn't shake the cold spell; Magic's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. The Wizards rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.

- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
