Magic win over Cavaliers marred by Markelle Fultz major injury
Terrence Ross scored 20 points and Dwayne Bacon had a season-high 19 points as the Orlando Magic closed out a two-game set against the Cleveland Cavaliers with a 105-94 victory Wednesday night at Amway Center.
The win improved Orlando to 6-2 but was overshadowed by a season-ending injury to point guard Markelle Fultz, who tore the ACL in his left knee. His knee gave out as he planted his foot on a drive to the basket against Cleveland’s Isaac Okoro early in the first quarter.
Fultz yelled in agony as he fell to the floor, then clutched his knee and pounded the floor with his fist. He was helped off the court and taken to the locker room in a wheelchair.
