The Boston Celtics defeated the Orlando Magic 138–129 at TD Garden on November 23, with Jaylen Brown's 35 points leading a balanced offensive attack. Al Horford contributed 23 points as the Celtics shot 60.2 percent from the field and made 15 three-pointers, establishing early control through a dominant second quarter that yielded 48 points. Boston's defense held Orlando to 47 percent shooting while forcing seven turnovers, though the Magic's Jalen Howard answered with 30 points and the visitors controlled the glass with 44 rebounds to Boston's 37. The Celtics' 29 assists and 8 blocks underscored their ball movement and rim protection, maintaining a 144.2 offensive rating despite Orlando's fourth-quarter surge that produced 40 points. The Magic's 33 assists and 16 three-pointers kept them competitive throughout, but Boston's second-quarter explosion proved decisive in a nine-point final margin. The win reinforces Boston's status as an Eastern Conference contender while Orlando faces questions about late-game execution.
