Kornet’s Block Seals Spurs’ Victory Over Magic

ORLANDO, Fla. – A clutch block by Luke Kornet on a last-second layup attempt by Franz Wagner secured a 114-112 victory for the San Antonio Spurs over the Orlando Magic on Wednesday night. De’Aaron Fox led the Spurs’ charge with 31 points, including the team’s final 10, capping off a strong performance marred only by seven of the team’s 19 turnovers.

The game came down to the wire. With just 1.4 seconds left, Fox hit two free throws after a foul by Orlando’s Jonathan Isaac, giving the Spurs a narrow lead. The Magic inbounded the ball to Wagner under the basket, but Kornet intervened with a decisive block, sending the ball out of bounds as the buzzer sounded.

The Spurs have demonstrated resilience in Victor Wembanyama’s absence, securing their seventh win in the last nine games. Dylan Harper provided a spark off the bench with 16 points, five rebounds, and five assists, while Devin Vassell contributed 15 points and six rebounds.

Wagner led the Magic with 25 points. Jalen Suggs added 24 points and three steals before fouling out with 25.6 seconds left. Desmond Bane, coming off consecutive 37-point games, finished with 14 points and six assists. Orlando has struggled since losing Paolo Bancherro to a strained groin, dropping three of their last ten contests.

The Spurs will continue their road trip with a game against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday night. The Magic will look to rebound at home against the Miami Heat, also on Friday night.
