After Action Report
The Magic survived the Kings 107-104. The Kings couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Magic. Fresh off a statement win, the Magic stayed locked in; second-chance points piled up for the Kings. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Magic per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
