Magic 105, Pistons 96: Nikola Vucevic and Evan Fournier lead Magic to third straight win

The Magic have won three straight for the first time since starting the season 4-0.

And their latest victory, a 105-96 win over the Pistons, was mostly thanks to two players.....

Evan Fournier, after scoring 13 first-quarter points against the Warriors on Friday, scored 12 in the game’s opening seven minutes againt the Pistons. He connected on his first three shots, the last of which was a banked-in three that gave the Magic a 21-11 lead with 5:11 remaining in the quarter. Nikola Vucevic, who the Pistons elected to defend with single coverage by Mason Plumlee, scored 11 in the first quarter, including a three-point play after Steve Clifford challenged what was initially called a charge.
