The Lead
Most games in the NBA are decided by how well the starters play. Occasionally, though, the reserves are the ones who make an even bigger difference, which is precisely what Sunday’s Orlando Magic versus Chicago Bulls game boiled down to, as Orlando’s reserves outscored Chicago’s by 42 in the Magic’s 114-95 victory at Amway Center.
Top Performers
Moe Wagner scored 23 points, his second 20-plus-point performance this season, on 9-of-13 shooting from the field. Chuma Okeke and Ignas Brazdeikis, one of Orlando’s two-way contract players, each finished with 11 points.
