After Action Report
The Magic snuck past the Celtics 101-96. Every possession went the Magic way. Magic's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
