Orlando Magic find a way with GRIT to win season opener | The Jalen Suggs DIFFERENCE

The Orlando Magic were on the ropes in their season opener against the Miami Heat. But in every critical moment, the team passed the test and found a way to make the play to win the game.

The Magic were not themselves as they struggled on defense in a 125-121 victory to open their season. But they did enough to get the win.

A big thanks goes to the return of Jalen Suggs. He delivered several big plays, including the go-ahead basket in the fourth quarter, that pushed the Magic to the victory. His presence was felt even in his limited minutes.
