Magic Come Up Clutch in Thrilling Victory Over Knicks
The Lead
For the second time in a row at Madison Square Garden, the Orlando Magic made more clutch plays than the New York Knicks. A Franz Wagner driving AND-1 dunk with 1:45 put Orlando ahead and stifling Magic defense from there helped secure their 104-98 victory.
Clutch Moments
The Wagner dunk wasn’t the only big play of the night. A couple possessions earlier, Terrence Ross made a breakaway dunk following a steal. Cole Anthony banked in a floater with 1:09 remaining to put the Magic up four and Wendell Carter Jr. off a lob from Jalen Suggs sealed the win with a monster throwdown with 29 ticks left.
