Magic Starting 5: Orlando Drops Home Finale vs. Cavs

1. MAGIC DROPS HOME FINALE VS. CAVALIERS

"The Orlando Magic is back in the loss column after a second defeat in as many games against the Cleveland Cavaliers by a final score of 118-94.

"The tight game on Tuesday was far different than tonight's rematch, which saw several key players from both teams sit out with far less on the line."

2. MAGIC GROWING DESPITE POSTSEASON ELIMINATION

"I think we put ourselves in position to learn this year and see what it’s like to play against playoff [teams]; meaningful basketball and understanding what it takes to win those games," guard Markelle Fultz said postgame Tuesday. "Again, that’s something that we have to continue to build and continue to work on as we go into the offseason.”

3. LONGEST INJURY REPORT EVER?

"It's been a long NBA season for the Portland Trail Blazers and San Antonio Spurs and the injuries are starting to pile up ... more than we've ever seen before."
