You don’t usually hear from the Orlando Magic on any given night, unless you live in Florida and/or have NBA League Pass and watch them on a consistent basis.
Tonight, the young Magic team was in Cleveland to take on LeBron James and the Cavaliers, who were undefeated at home going into the game. Although Orlando was no match for Kevin Love‘s 34 points and 8 rebounds on the night or J.R. Smith‘s 26 buckets, they did have a sweet highlight.
In the first quarter, the Magic turned solid defense into offense as Elfrid Payton stole a pass in the open floor and ran down the court for a fast break opportunity. Victor Oladipo was in pursuit and caught a nice lob from the point guard and did it in high flying acrobatic fashion. He soared in the air and caught it one-handed to throw down the slam in J.R. Swish’s face.
It was so effortless, you know the two do that in practice all the time.
