On March 12, Beijing time, the Magic team played at home against the Timberwolves, and the Magic team recently achieved a record of 4 wins and 3 losses, and the team's condition has improved since Fultz's return. At the beginning of the game, the Timberwolves played a scoring climax under the leadership of Towns and Edwards, scoring 36 points in the first quarter; the Magic were slow to open, and the Timberwolves took a 12-point lead in the first quarter. Fortunately, in the second quarter, the Magic team felt revived, Bambari suddenly shot 8 points to help the team stop the bleeding, Wagner went inside to create a killing, Fultz also scored 6 points in the second quarter; in addition, the Timberwolves Downs fell into foul trouble early, and could only watch from the sidelines when the two teams were glued. In the end, the Magic won a home game with a 118-110 under-gram.
The Magic scored in double figures with five members of the team, of which Bamba played particularly critical in this game, shooting 10 of 15 from the field, including 5 of 8 three-pointers to get 27 points and 12 rebounds, his progress in this season is visible to the naked eye, the playing style is gradually mature, and the offensive means are very comprehensive. However, Bamba's offensive desire is not strong, the team does not give him many opportunities, if he can be reused, I believe that with his talent can become the league's premier center. In addition, Wendell Carter's performance was on par with Bamba's, with Carter scoring 20 points, 10 rebounds and five assists on 7-of-15 shooting in the game, and scoring 13 points in the third quarter to help the Magic rebound. After Fultz's comeback, the Magic's morale soared, and there were constantly players who were able to stand up and help the team, which was good news for the Magic.
Speaking to the media, Fultz talked about his goals for the season, saying he wanted to finish the season healthily and help the team win more games. A very poignant goal, from his words can feel his helplessness about injury, Fultz's performance after the comeback is very stable, it can be seen that he recovered very well, this game he shot 4 of 8 with 14 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists, the performance is very good. In his five games this season, he shot 53.8 percent from the field and averaged 10.4 points, 2.6 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game. The Magic were intent on protecting Fultz, so each game would only let him play for ten minutes. Judging from Fultz's shooting style and shooting confidence, he has recovered very well, and I believe that Fultz next season can make our eyes shine.
Although the Magic are currently at the bottom of the record, their goal is not this season. Now that Fultz has returned and his strength has grown, I believe that after a period of time with the rest of his teammates, the Magic can return to the playoffs next season. After Fultz suffered from Eduerie, many fans felt sorry for him, and now he has returned in blood, believing that with his talent, he can become a hot star in the league in a short period of time.
