BELIEVE: Orlando Magic Surge as Paolo Banchero & Jalen Suggs DELIVER Must-Win Victories

The Orlando Magic scored a critical victory over the Detroit Pistons, securing their third straight win and their fifth in the last seven. Is it time to believe this team can make a miraculous turnaround and steal back the 6- or 7-seed?

Wins like this one are certainly important. The Magic are playing well again, even if they are beating up on some weakened competition. Orlando needs as many wins as they can get. They will take all of them they can get.

The Magic used good ball movement and a hounding defense to beat the undermanned Pistons. Jalen Suggs showed that he is growing as a playmaker, tallying 12 assists and one turnover to help the Magic win the game.

Orlando needed the win as they continue to try to escape the Play-In.
