Magic 135, Hawks 124: Magic have historic first quarter in fourth-straight win
It was a strong start for the Orlando Magic to say the least.
The Magic set a franchise record for most points scored in a quarter on Wednesday by dropping 50 in the first against the Atlanta Hawks. While doing so, they went up by as many as 29 points in the first en route to a 135-124 victory that extended their winning streak to four games.
The Magic hit 7 of their first 10 shots in the game, with the Wagner brothers combining for three three-pointers. Back-to-back makes from deep by Franz Wagner opened an early 17-4 advantage.
Bol Bol helped cap an 18-2 Orlando run by stripping the ball from behind in the backcourt and feeding Moe Wagner for the lay-in to give the Magic a 22-6 lead.
