Desmond Bane scored 28 points and made four free throws in the last 24 seconds as the Orlando Magic beat the Toronto Raptors 121-114 in Toronto on Friday, October 30.
Bane hit 8 of 18 shots, 6 of 12 from 3-point range, and went 6-of-6 at the line. He added six assists. Franz Wagner had 26 points and 11 assists, and Wendell Carter Jr. scored 20.
Orlando (2-3) built its largest lead, 69-57, early in the third quarter. Toronto (3-2) outscored the Magic 33-31 in the period and kept the gap in single digits going into the fourth.
Tristan da Silva hit a 26-foot three-pointer, assisted by Bane, in the fourth quarter. Ja'Kobe Walter's 24-foot jumper at 2:09 cut the margin to 117-112. Bane then made two free throws at 24.0 seconds and two more at 16.3 to make it 121-112, and Immanuel Quickley's layup in the final seconds closed the scoring.
Scottie Barnes scored 41 points for Toronto on 19-of-34 shooting. Quickley had 17 points and eight assists. RJ Barrett shot 3-of-10 and committed five turnovers.
Orlando posted an effective field goal percentage of 64.9 to Toronto's 56.6. The Magic made 18 threes to the Raptors' 11, and took 29 free throws to Toronto's 15.
