In a tightly contested game, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the Oklahoma City Thunder to a 105-99 victory over the Orlando Magic, scoring 35 points. Jalen Williams contributed crucial points in the fourth quarter, helping to stave off a late Magic rally.

Despite a strong performance from Anthony Black, who matched his career high with 23 points, the Magic struggled without key players Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner, resulting in their third consecutive loss.
