Boston defeated Orlando 111-107 on November 9 at Kia Center, with Jaylen Brown and Anfernee Simons combining for 52 points to power the Celtics' road victory. Brown led the way with 27 points while Simons added 25, as Boston shot 47.1 percent from the field and made 13 three-pointers compared to Orlando's seven. The Magic, led by Paolo Banchero's 28 points and Franz Wagner's 20, stayed competitive through three quarters but couldn't match Boston's fourth-quarter surge—the Celtics outscored them 33-27 in the final frame. Boston's defense proved decisive, holding Orlando to 44.9 percent shooting and forcing 17 turnovers while committing only 14 themselves. The Celtics' 114.4 offensive rating and 110.2 defensive rating reflected their balanced execution, while the Magic's 110.2 offensive rating and 114.4 defensive rating underscored their inability to sufficiently contain Boston's perimeter threat. Boston's fourth-quarter dominance and three-point efficiency demonstrated the kind of clutch shooting necessary to win on the road in the Eastern Conference.
