Evan Fournier hit a driving layup with 6.4 seconds left and Nikola Vucevic thwarted a last-second shot attempt by Devin Booker as the Orlando Magic beat the Phoenix Suns 112-111 on Wednesday night at Amway Center.

Vucevic recorded his 30th double-double of the season with 27 points and 14 rebounds to lead the Magic (15-29). Fournier finished with 21 points while Chuma Okeke scored a career-high 17 points on 6-for-6 shooting.

Shooting guard Terrence Ross, the team’s third-leading scorer, missed his fifth straight game because of a sore right knee.
