Cole Anthony sparking a #Magic run and the lead is 14 with 7:54 left. #Hawks offense pretty much a mess besides Trae. – 9:48 PM
Bobby Manning @RealBobManning
Cole Anthony with the potentially decisive run to start the 4th. Have always loved his game. Needed offensive spark at times in that slog of an offense. – 9:36 PM
Dan Savage @Dan_Savage
Halftime: Magic 61, Hawks 47
Wendell Carter Jr. – 10 pts, 4 rebs
Paolo Banchero – 9 pts, 6 rebs, 6 asts
Anthony Black – 9 pts, team-best +17 +/-
Cole Anthony – 9 pts – 8:45 PM
Cody Taylor @CodyTaylorNBA
Quin Snyder talked pregame about the Hawks having limited options for stopping Paolo Banchero 1-on-1. They’ve tried to double him, and he has done a great job of swinging the ball to find the open man, as shown on that last 3 by Cole Anthony. – 8:25 PM
