After Action Report

In Orlando, the Magic survived the Cavaliers 107-104. The better team simply showed up tonight. Magic's old heads steadied the ship in the swings; second-chance points piled up for the Cavaliers. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. The Magic rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

What tipped it

  • Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Cavaliers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
