After Action Report

In Orlando, the SuperSonics snuck past the Magic 111-108. The Magic couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the SuperSonics. Second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The SuperSonics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
