The Orlando Magic were 1-4 in its last five games coming into Wednesday’s matchup at the Pepsi Center. The host for the evening, the Denver Nuggets, didn’t allow magic to upstage its party. Denver sent its fans home with a win, despite a disappointing first half.
In the end, Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic proved a powerful one-two punch. However, the first half told a different story. It took some time in the basement for Denver to see the light. Thankfully, the offense was able to wake up from the nightmare of the first half.
