The Magic clearly won 120:101 (67:51) once morest the Los Angeles Lakers in the North American Basketball League on Saturday (local time). Franz Wagner was his team’s top scorer with 26 points, while Moritz Wagner contributed 13 points and eight rebounds off the bench to the Magic’s fourth win in the sixth game of the season.
Orlando laid the foundation in the first quarter (39:25), and in the meantime the team from Florida scored 13 points in a row. Due to several failures, the Lakers relied for a long time on a mini rotation with eight players around the superstars LeBron James (24 points) and Anthony Davis (28 points, 13 rebounds, seven blocks), which ultimately led to Orlando’s clear success with a gap of 19 points but not prevent it.
Celtics lead in the East – Jokic shines once more
The Magic trail only the Boston Celtics, Philadelphia 76ers and Atlanta Hawks in the Eastern Conference, all of whom also won on Saturday. After a 124-114 win at the Brooklyn Nets, Boston is the only team in the league without a loss early in the season. The Western Conference is led by the current NBA champion Denver Nuggets around superstar Nikola Jokic, who once once more shone with 33 points, 16 rebounds and nine assists in the 123:101 win once morest the Chicago Bulls.
Meanwhile, world champion Daniel Theis is still waiting for his first appearance of the season. In his Indiana Pacers’ narrow 124:125 win once morest the Charlotte Hornets, the German center remained on the bench the entire game, as he did in the first five games of the season.
