The Atlanta Hawks defeated the Orlando Magic, 106-104, at State Farm Arena on Wednesday.

The Hawks (17-23) and the Magic (22-19) engaged in another low-scoring affair, which has been a trend for Orlando of late, but unlike in recent contests, the Magic came up short. Orlando was coming off a comeback win over the New York Knicks in their most recent game, but the Magic melted down in this one and allowed the Hawks to come from behind in the second half. The game started tight and neither team established dominance following a 26-26 score, but the Magic ended the first half on top following a 25-23 score in the second quarter. The Hawks played the second half with a more aggressive approach, and while the game remained close, Atlanta flipped the script and grabbed a two-point lead after a 29-25 score in the third quarter. Atlanta held on in the final 12 minutes to secure the victory after a 28-28 outcome in the fourth quarter. With the win, the Magic fell to 9-14 on the road, while the Hawks moved to 8-11 at home.
