The Lead
The evening started with outstanding news, as Nikola Vucevic, the Orlando Magic’s leading scorer and rebounder this season, was named an NBA All-Star for the second time in his career. The rest of Tuesday night, however, didn’t go Orlando's way. The Magic shot just 37.5 percent from the field, with their starters going a combined 19-for-52, in a 105-93 loss to the Detroit Pistons at Amway Center.
