Orlando Magic Rally to Beat Celtics 108-104

The Orlando Magic secured a dramatic 108-104 victory over the Boston Celtics, overcoming a 15-point halftime deficit despite missing key players. Tristan da Silva scored 18 points, including a crucial three-pointer with just 9.9 seconds left, while Trevelin Queen added 17 points in his first NBA start. The Celtics, who were without star player Jayson Tatum due to illness, saw Jaylen Brown lead the team with 35 points but struggled with their shooting, making only 8 of 32 attempts from beyond the arc. Orlando's defense proved pivotal as they outscored Boston 36-21 in the third quarter, tying the game and eventually taking the lead. The Celtics' late rally fell short, marked by a missed potential go-ahead three-pointer by Al Horford. With this win, the Magic improved their home record to 12-2 and continued to build momentum despite recent challenges.
