Orlando closed its preseason with a 136-115 win over Miami, rallying from a 12-point first-quarter deficit and extending its winning streak against the Heat. Desmond Bane scored 23 points and made seven of 12 three-pointers, while Paolo Banchero added 24. The victory came with injury concerns: Franz Wagner left with right shoulder soreness, and Jase Richardson and Noah Penda also exited and did not return. The Magic finished the preseason 3-1 and will look to get healthier before opening the regular season against Atlanta.
