Orlando Magic Grades: Dallas Mavericks 122, Orlando Magic 106
The Orlando Magic struggled to corral Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks falling again with a disappointing defensive and shooting effort.
The Orlando Magic woke up from their post-All-Star Break slumber and picked up the pace defensively. Suddenly they were in passing lanes and getting out in transition. The ball that got stuck and relied too much on pick and pops or post-ups to try to generate some spae was flowing.
Evan Fournier was draining threes and attacking the paint. Everything that seemed broken suddenly seemed to work and the Magic had erased an 18-point deficit.
