The Lead
One of the main things we’ve learned about this young Orlando Magic team is that if they aren’t completely locked in defensively, their offense will suffer. That’s precisely what happened Saturday against the Washington Wizards in their 104-92 loss at Amway Center. Cole Anthony led the Magic with 22 points, while Wendell Carter Jr. scored 17 points and Mo Bamba recorded 14 points, 17 rebounds and three blocks.
Key Stats
For the fourth time in their last five games, the Magic shot below 40 percent from the field, finishing at 33.
