Game Analysis: Shooting Efficiency and a Decisive Finish
Wagner’s scoring gave Orlando its leading individual performance, but the Magic also received support from their overall shooting.

The Magic finished with a 45-38 rebounding advantage and a 24-21 edge in assists. Those advantages complemented their perimeter production and helped offset a game in which Utah led after both the first and third quarters.

The Jazz had recovered from a seven-point halftime deficit, but they could not sustain that improvement through the final period.
