We’ve officially reached All-Star Week and the Orlando Magic are just 1.5 games out of a playoff spot.
Playing in the second game of a back-to-back on the road, the Magic used a balanced attack to rout the Atlanta Hawks, 124-108, giving Orlando a third straight win for just the second time this season (and their fifth win in their last six games). By improving to 25-32, the Magic matched their win total from last season with 25 games remaining.
Seven players finished in double figures for the Magic, who moved within 1.5 games of the eighth-seeded Heat after Miami fell to the Warriors by two late Sunday night.
