WARNING: Orlando Magic DELIVER Statement Win—Paolo Banchero, Desmond Bane POWER Playoff Surge



WARNING: Orlando Magic DELIVER Statement Win—Paolo Banchero, Desmond Bane POWER Playoff Surge

The Orlando Magic surged past the Cleveland Cavaliers behind Desmond Bane’s electrifying 35-point performance and another strong defensive showing from Paolo Banchero for their fifth win in a row in a 128-122 victory.

The win serves notice that the Magic are a player in the Eastern Conference as they take over the 5-seed in the conference. This was a major win against a quality team that shows the team can still compete in the East. And they may be a sneaky team when the Playoffs begin.

The team’s breakout is finally here as they realize their potential at long last.

  1. There's still room for upward movement in the standings. Toronto has lost the plot & while Cleveland has an easy schedule, the Knicks are going to be tested by some good teams. Franz & Black are only going to improve our chances.

  2. This is the statement win we needed (as big as the win in minnesota was) against a top team in the conference. We have now beat all 4 teams above us at least once. Whoever is the 1st round opponent, let's make their lives miserable. Go Magic!

  3. Tristan is that 3rd guy making this team a lot better not everything is bane and paolo

  4. great win! the cavs are a scary team and seeing Paolo and Tristan playing like top tier 2-way players shows we can cause a ruckus in the playoffs.
