Overview
- Orlando closed with a decisive late run to win at the Kia Center, led by Franz Wagner’s 27 points and Desmond Bane’s 22.
- Jaylen Brown scored 32 but had only two points on 1-for-5 shooting in the fourth quarter and attempted just two free throws.
- Brown said "the officials made their point," days after the NBA’s two-minute report confirmed a missed late foul in Boston’s loss to Utah and he avoided a fine.
- Boston committed 14 turnovers, including five in the fourth, as the Magic pulled away with a 26-14 finishing stretch.
- The Magic hit a season-high 17 threes at 47.2 percent; the Celtics fell to 4-6 and visit Orlando again Sunday in a rematch.
