Thanks also to the brilliant German European champions Franz Wagner and Tristan da Silva, the Orlando Magic confidently achieved their second victory in a row in the North American basketball league NBA. The team clearly defeated the Los Angeles Clippers 129:101. Wagner scored 20 points and Silva contributed 17 points.
This made the two Germans the best throwers on their team behind Jalen Suggs (23 points). Wagner, who had already won the World Cup with the German national team in 2023, also had three assists and six rebounds, while Silva recorded one assist and eight rebounds. Orlando continued its positive trend and celebrated its fifth win in the last six games. In the table, the team is in the middle of the Eastern Conference.
However, there was once again nothing to gain for Dennis Schröder and the Sacramento Kings – instead, the club’s crisis continues to expand. The Kings suffered a bitter blow at 96:137 against the Memphis Grizzlies, which even world and European champion Schröder was unable to counter. The 32-year-old came off the bench and failed to score any of his eight attempts from the game. In the end, Schröder only had three points and his team is in second-to-last place in the West.
