Magic's Efforts Overshadowed


Despite their efforts, the Orlando Magic struggled to find their rhythm throughout the game. They managed to score only 85 points with an overall field goal percentage sitting at just 33 percent compared to Dallas' more efficient rate of 49 percent. The Magic did have moments where they shone through - leading for a brief period (7:43 minutes) and even achieving a seven-point lead at one stage during the match.


Their bench contributed significantly with forty-two bench points but it wasn't enough to counteract Dallas’ dominance on both ends of the floor. The most telling statistic was perhaps in fast break scenarios where despite having more attempts (14), they could only convert these into twelve points – showcasing difficulties in capitalizing on quick transition opportunities.
