Orlando Magic Grades: Houston Rockets 119, Orlando Magic 114
The Orlando Magic got some great offensive performances and good play from their young guys, but fell short yet again in Houston to the Houston Rockets.
The Orlando Magic found themselves in a close game once again. They made their stand and forced overtime when Evan Fournier drew a foul and sank two free throws.
The Magic’s much maligned defense — at least, on this night — stepped up throughout the fourth quarter, getting stops and turning them into fast break points. Orlando’s offense was able to keep pace with Houston throughout the night, never losing contact even as Houston took control of the game in the second quarter.
