Magic hold on to defeat Raptors 102-94
ORLANDO, Fla. — With the season more than halfway over, the Orlando Magic are looking for any sign their playoffs goal is still possible.
Toronto, a playoff-tested team and one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference, is giving Orlando hope. The Magic defeated Toronto 102-94 on Friday night for their second win over the Raptors in less than a week.
Orlando pulled out a one-point road win Sunday and then used an impressive second-half to upend the short-handed Raptors at Amway Center on Friday.
“I think we matchup with them pretty well,” said Orlando guard C.J. Watson, who came off the bench to score 18 points on Friday. “We played well against them on the road so we came in pretty confident with this game.”
