The Lead
One would think a player who missed five straight games and eight of nine would need some time to shake off the rust. Not for Cole Anthony, however, as the 6-foot-3 guard erupted for 26 points, including eight in the fourth quarter. It wasn’t enough, though, as the Orlando Magic ran out of gas late in a 116-106 loss on Wednesday at Amway Center.
Clutch Moments
A 12-4 Magic run, which started with five minutes and change left, cut their deficit from 11 to three. The Sixers responded by scoring the game’s last seven points.
