It was another close contest near the final moments Sunday night at Amway Center for the Orlando Magic, this time against the Washington Wizards.
And like it’s been for the Magic of late, the Wizards were able to make more plays late in the game, handing Orlando their ninth consecutive loss, 102-100.
Kyle Kuzma scored 27 points and collected a career-high 22 rebounds, and Bradley Beal chipped-in with 20 points (7-22 FGA’s), 7 assists, and 6 rebounds.
Over Orlando’s last five games, the margin of defeat for the Magic has been five points or less. Head Coach Jamahl Mosley told reporters after the game that the team is keeping things in perspective.
