The Wagner Brothers combined for 44 points, Paolo Banchero had 20, and Cole Anthony added 14 off the bench, leading the Magic to a 117-109 victory over the Celtics. Boston started strong, but after losing their lead late in the first quarter, they never got it back.
The Celtics returned to Boston after a 4-2 road trip. They open a seven-game homestand with two straight against the Magic, who sit at the bottom of the standings but have now extended their winning streak to five games.
With Robert Williams scheduled to make his season debut, Al Horford’s return after a five-game absence predictably got overlooked.
