Magic’s season-ending loss reshuffles East playoff seeds
TL;DR Summary
Orlando’s 113-108 upset of a Celtics reserve-heavy lineup reshuffles the East play-in picture: the Magic drop to No. 8 and will face Philadelphia in the first play-in game, while Toronto climbs to No. 5 and Atlanta to No. 6 based on tiebreakers. The loss caps a disappointing season for Orlando, hindered by injuries and uneven production despite high expectations, though they can still reach the playoffs by winning one of their final two games.
