Orlando Magic Drop Fifth Straight Game in Narrow Loss to Bulls

Coby White's career-high 44 points lead Chicago to a 125-123 victory as Orlando's struggles deepen.

The Orlando Magic have lost five consecutive games, including a 1-6 record during their seven-game homestand, falling to 29-35 on the season.
Coby White scored a career-high 44 points for the Chicago Bulls, including the team's final nine points, securing a comeback win after trailing by nine in the fourth quarter.
Orlando's shooting struggles from three-point range continued, going 9 of 33 (27.3%) from beyond the arc, compared to Chicago's 15 of 40 (37.5%).
Despite strong performances from Paolo Banchero (20 points), Cole Anthony (20 points), and Franz Wagner (18 points), the Magic failed to capitalize on late-game opportunities, including a missed game-winning shot by Banchero.
The Magic now face a challenging five-game road trip, beginning with the Milwaukee Bucks, as they attempt to regain confidence and stay in the playoff race.
