A quality effort from the Orlando Magic who swept the week with winning efforts against Philly, San Antonio, and Washington. Granted all three of those opponents are struggling to a certain extent but it doesn’t take away from the fact the Magic finally discovered a semblance of offense to match wit their defensive adeptness.
To wit, after breaking the 100 point threshold just three times in 10 games the Magic 112 versus the 76ers, 111 against the Spurs and 125 against the Wizards for an average of 116 points this week.
Nikola Vucevic broke out with 25 points versus Philly and 30 versus the Wizards but more importantly at least six players scored in double-digits in each of the three games.
