The Orlando Magic were hoping to be the first team to beat the Utah Jazz this season when trailing after three quarters.
The Magic took a small bite out of a double-digit lead early in the fourth quarter but couldn’t gain any traction after that and took a 124-109 loss Saturday against the Jazz in front of 4,242 at Amway Center.
Orlando (13-21) can take some solace in a lopsided loss to Utah. The Jazz entered Saturday’s game leading the NBA in net rating (+9.7) and now have 14 victories of 15 points or more. They also improved to 24-0 this season when leading after the third quarter.
