The night began being all about who wasn’t on the floor for both the Magic and the Mavericks in a contest that bared serious lottery implications.
It finished being about who was on the floor, notably Coach Frank Vogel’s second unit. For the second consecutive night, Orlando was able to ride their bench contributions en route to a win. Last night it happened in New York. Tonight, Orlando’s bench unit combined for 48 points and played the majority of the fourth quarter as the team defeated the Dallas Mavericks 105-100.
“That was great for them,” Vogel said of his second unit.
