The host Orlando Magic defeated the Brooklyn Nets , 118 - 111 , at Amway Center on Friday . While these teams have struggled throughout the season , they left it all on the floor in this close fought battle . In fact , there were 15 lead changes and 15 ties , with no team leading by more than nine points . Orlando took advantage of their opportunities , as they took 14 more shots than Brooklyn . The reason for that were turnovers and offensive rebounding , as they won the turnover battle , 17 - 7 , and the offensive rebounding , 13 - 6 . Free-throws were also huge for Orlando , as they went 33 - of - 42 from the charity stripe , with Brooklyn committing 32 fouls . Brooklyn ( 7 - 18 ) has really struggled on the defensive end this season and a 118 - point outing to the 29th ranked offense shows just that . Brook Lopez once again led the team in scoring , as he tallied 22 points , six rebounds and five blocks before fouling out in the final seconds . Jeremy Lin was second on the team , as he accrued 17 points , three rebounds and three assists off the bench . While Trevor Booker did snatch down nine boards , he went 0 - of - 5 from the field to score just two points . On deck for the Nets is a road matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday . Orlando ( 12 - 16 ) had lost six - straight home games coming into this matchup , so to say this win was needed would be a drastic understatement . Nikola Vucevic made his return from a back injury to drop 21 points , 10 rebounds , four assists and three blocks off the bench . Evan Fournier also scored 21 points , adding four rebounds to his tally . Serge Ibaka may have been the most valuable player though , as he accumulated 18 points , 10 rebounds and five blocks in the victory . D.J . Augustin recorded 17 points , six rebounds and four assists as the starting point guard . Orlando will host the Toronto Raptors on Sunday for their next game . These are two teams that have struggled all season , but it 's not for a lack of effort . In this matchup , there were 15 ties and 15 lead changes in total , with no team leading by more than nine points . Despite Orlando barely cracking 40 percent , they took 14 more shots than Brooklyn . The reason for that was the offensive rebounding ( 13 - 6 ) and turnovers ( 17 - 7 ) , as they dominated both of those statistics . Jeremy Lin played just 19 minutes off the bench as he continues to recover from injury , but tallied 17 points , three rebounds and three assists in his second game off injury . Brook Lopez led the Nets in scoring , as he dropped 22 points , six rebounds and five blocks . Nikola Vucevic led the Magic in scoring , as he accrued 21 points , 10 rebounds and four assists off the bench . Evan Fournier also scored 21 points , adding four rebounds as well . Serge Ibaka recorded an 18 - point , 10 - rebound double - double , while adding five blocks in the victory .
