First Quarter


The game began with the Kings taking an early lead, scoring 28 points in the first quarter compared to Orlando's 18. The home team capitalized on their fast break opportunities and maintained a solid defensive stance against O-Town Magic.


Second Quarter


However, it was in the second quarter that Orlando turned up the heat. The Magic exploded for an impressive 46 points while holding Sactown to just 27. Desmond Bane led this offensive surge with his sharp shooting from three-point range, contributing significantly to his team's success.


Third Quarter


Entering the third quarter with momentum on their side, Orlando continued to dominate by adding another 38 points. Paolo Banchero was instrumental during this period as he not only scored efficiently but also facilitated plays for his teammates. His all-around performance helped extend Orlando's lead further.


Fourth Quarter


In contrast, Sacramento struggled offensively in the final quarter and managed only 10 points against a relentless Magic defense that recorded multiple steals and blocks throughout the game. Anthony Black stood out defensively for O-Town by disrupting passing lanes and creating turnovers that led to easy transition baskets.


Overall, this matchup highlighted key moments such as Desmond Bane’s pivotal three-pointers and Paolo Banchero’s leadership on both ends of court play—factors which were crucial in securing victory for Orlando.
