Also, Mikal Bridges had the best half of his career as he scored 34 points from all over the floor, including from behind the three-point line. Brooklyn went into halftime leading Orlando 73-51.

In the second half, the Magic made a furious comeback to start the third quarter as they started to make some of the easy shots that they were missing in the first half along with the Nets starting to get sloppy with their play to begin the half. After about halfway through the third quarter, Brooklyn picked up their play to force Orlando out of striking distance into a fourth quarter that was Nets-dominated just like the first.
