FULL GAME HIGHLIGHTS: ORLANDO MAGIC VS. CHARLOTTE HORNETS 10.30.25
They have won nine out of 10 overall and nine out of 12 in this building. Hopefully that trend continues. Magic win the tip and we have Magic in Charlotte, North Carolina. Gives to Bridges. He’ll drive. Shot. No good. Good D by Carter Jr. That’s what we need. Good defense in the paint then get the rebound clear and off we go. France right down the middle. Maybe the thought with giving him his first start of the season. Well, you want size on him. Melo obviously a big point guard. Conanipo leaves for Brener and he’s got another one automatic. Yeah, any switches that we have. Confrunner 71. Good hands. Keeps the ball high above his head. Five-year college player at Kraton. 34th pick in this past draft. That’s a good sign for Anthony Black who answers with the three. Here comes Anthony Black. Now Vagner, he’ll try a three. And that one’s good. And Paulo picking right up where he left off last night in the first quarter of that game. Just coming downhill distributing the basketball to the open man. Now two assists. You’re right. Had seven last night. LaMelo ball into the corner. Can he can do that. And he hits. They make him play on the defensive end. AB doing a good job. He is locked in early here. Certainly did that. Seon James right to the rack and he answers with the bucket by Fron Vagner. lays it in. And that’s the pace that you want to play with. But first, you got to control the boards. Pocker. Rim run to the other end with a flush. Vanero backing down. Colin Ston who just checked into the basketball game. Now Noah Penda. He’ll drive. Euro step for Penda. And look at Noah Penda. This is just a nice job watching big long strides. That big Euro Penda a rookie for the fourth consecutive year. I can’t imagine h how fast things are coming at no offender. Great take by Bane. And there’s the followup by the long arms of Goa Bataz. Anthony Black answers with the three of his own. They got to pick that one up. Those are those 50/50 balls. Got to have them. Well, they got to be ready. Few guys in this league are as active as Diabate. Lamelo ball with the lob to send Diabate and he’ll catch him flush. Magic with an 11-point lead. Great start continues. Fron Vagner off the nice pass from Anthony Black here in the first quarter. Look at France. He’s just battling. This is not a good matchup for Ne LaMelo Ball. Those are the tough ones coming down the lane that you you want to force. Just don’t want guys to get all the way to the rim. How about Wendell finding his range from deeplo ball surveys the landscape. Shot clock down to three. He’s got to hurry. Great D by Bogner. Shot is up and he gets the roll. A soft touch right there. [Applause] Now Bridges likes his match up with Jones. Here comes Daisac to help. And a steal by Dilva. Races the other way right through that Charlotte defense and dunks it down. Tristan Dilva. Watch this one on the break. Tristan going right by him for the easy layin. Shot no good by Joe. Here comes Bridges. Rejected. How active is Jonathan Isaac tonight. Wardner the other way. Tough floater of beauty. Is magic basketball right here. Bridges on the drives. Got his man beat. But here comes the minister of defense. Blocked that one. And that gets France Fagner in transition with the beautiful finger roll. He’ll have that ability here tonight. Ton Salon will drive and that one swatted away by Bataz. Here comes Bane. He’ll muscle in for two. Back to Trey Man trying to get past Bane. Great Magic defense active here tonight. Cochr Brener. Another bucket for Ryan Cochrrener and he’s got a chance for a three-point play. The big fella doing a nice job. Look, he’s in that dunker spot. Just stepping up, using his size. Now Ban Carol. Anthony Black will drive. Floater up and in. Catch for a three-point play. Anthony Black. Job of relocation, getting out and then not settling, attacking the defense. And LaMelo Ball picking up his second. 67 LaMelo Ball. That one is short. Magic secured the rebound. Here they come. Go Pataz looking for his first triple and he nails it. We might have to revisit that celebration after that three. That was rehearsed celebration and just sheer joy. I don’t know what that was. Drive by Liam McNeely is good and he’ll go to the line. Here comes Ball racing the other way. Nifty move and the floater a beauty. Romelo ball. So talented with that basketball. Foul called on Ston. But we’re moving on. Anthony Black with a basketball wide open. He’ll try a three. That one up and in. Will it count? It will. And there’s a foul away from the ball. Magic pouring it on here in Charlotte. Ball will drive. Tough move over Bataz. What a finish for Ball. Strength, ability to defend. Stays with Sexton there. Terrific job. Now Dioonte. Oh, and he got right around Penda there and laid it in. Musadia Bonte making a difference tonight. He’s got eight. Van Carol will try a three. Splash. Paulo Vancero. Long down to Musa. Devonte running wide open to the rim. He’ll catch it flush. Back down. Bridges now gives to Vagner. Five on the shot clock. He’ll try a deep three and hit it. Rod Vagner. There you go. [Applause] Colin Ston. Tough shot. Will he get the bounce? Yes, he does. And a chance for a three-point play and get himself to the line. That’s a good drive here. Takes the bump. And then AB trying to be aggressive. Brener. You know what he does offensively. Not bad on the defensive end either. He’s very active. Desmond Bane back to Carter Jr. and the lefty flush. Well, the Magic doing a good job. They’re moving the basketball and lamelo ball. That was a great play. And that’s a great defensive play there. Anthony Black. He’ll steal it and hammer it down. Two more for AB. Deflection steals Tan Tomahawk. And how about this steal by AB? Look at the active hands. Nothing to do but flush this one in. 10 times in his career. He’s gone for 20. Seion James tough shot. Got it. And a three-point play. This time Anthony Black commits the personal follow and AB turnover. He lost the handle. I think Bridges poked it away. Here comes Steton. He’ll race the other way and lay it in this time. Feet inbounds ready to go. Ball deflected. Great play by AB. Fiveon one. Po drive and he’ll finish. Take it yourself. B5. Colin Ston will hoist it. He’ll hit. Nothing but that. Colin Ston is feeling it. Shot clock down to five. Terrific D by ball has nowhere to go. the floater high off the glass and he got it who was sensational in the first half on the floor. Shot clock at five. Vagner has to hurry. Drive. Nice pass to Bataz and it’s swatted away by Diamonte. Came in with one block on the season. Von Bagner will try and three. Got it. Bagner a triple about this. the last four minutes. The Hornets have six turnovers and they’re 0 of two from the floor. Nice move by Vagner, but Bennett being held on that spin. Held and thrown down, but no call. There’s a steal by the Minister of Defense. Places the other way and hammers down two. [Applause] Seion James will fire a three and rattle it home. and he came in one of the better three-point shooters in the league. But Bo up on the scoreboard right now 107. Now he’s set back three. A good one for Miles Bridges. Sexton commit to him. Now you’ve got an advantage on the weak side. Instead, it results in a turnover and the Charlotte Hornets have backto- back threes from Bridges. Taking what the defense gives him. Asserting himself a little bit more offensively here the last five. Now go get one with a strip. Steal by the Magic. Here comes Bogner. Back to Vanero. He’ll dunk it down. Two more. He’s got 18. Van Carol off the screen from Carter. Shot clock at five. Turnaround jumper. That is automatic for Paulo Vanero. Better job that time by Paulo again. Son was stunning at him like he was going to get a double. Did not give the basketball up. There’s a lob from ball to cockbrunner. Player whose name coincides with the city he plays for. This might be the first maybe. D Silva drives, lays it in. Maybe there’s a Mitch Rockets or something that I’ve missed. Good win for the Orlando Magic. 123 to 107. They’ll snap that four-game losing streak and they’ll improve to two and four on the

Listen, I was angry and I apologize but this team is to damn talented to not be winning. With that said I apologize and Go Magic
Great win,the wizards getting cooked next
Its about damn time!!! #GOMAGIC #Playthedamnsong
If Paolo can get going and Bane can get his shot back I think we'll be just fine. New players and clearly we're trying to speed things up on offense. Gonna be growing pains but this was a pretty good step foward.
Suppose to win this
2-4 IS STILL ASSSSSSSSSS WERE ON OUR WAY THO GO MAGIC!
love the 9 assists from P5. Before this game, they had basically made him an afterthought in the new offensive system.
Thrilled that they're finally playing good defense again. they get gassed by a way too fast pace and stopped playing their normal suffocating defense. hope we get back to that soon. it's their identity + the reason they'd win games even when they couldn't score.
how bout you damm played jase richardson you damm mosley!! kid needs a time to develop and jam with the team you sickening me!!
Go Magic 😀 Good game tonight 💪🏾🎉
my team is 2-0 so far! trying to go 3-0
go magic 🪄
go lightning ⚡️
go dolphins 🐬
Much better defense tonight Orlando, the team held the Hornets to an average of 27 points per quarter, a big difference from the last game against Detroit where the team gave up an average of 33 points per quarter. Keep up the defense and let's get to only allowing no more than 25 points per quarter.
I needed to see a game like this from them, I was so upset with how they’ve been playing through the first 5. We gotta get back to the identity we’ve had!
WE NEED BENCH SCORING. Go get Jordan Poole please. Even though I’m sure we don’t have the money to lol
I watched the full game, magic did pretty good in first half with PB being the point forward, but i dont understand why they not running with him in 3rd quarter, alot of turnovers could be avoid, hornet almost make a comeback during that time. i really appreciate they didnt blow it in 4th quarter and finish the hornet off, which they cant the last few games
