The Orlando Magic defeated the host Miami Heat, 116 - 107, at American Airlines Arena on Monday. Despite Orlando leading for nearly the entirety of this game, it was close throughout.

Three-point shooting was a huge factor for the Magic, as they went 8 - of - 14 from long range, while Miami hit just 6 - of - 22. Rebounding was decisive as well, with Orlando winning that battle, 52 - 37. The Magic (21 - 36) had lost 16 of 20 headed into this game, so a road win against someone as hot as Miami has to be an encouraging sign.

Nikola Vucevic was equally as big, totaling 13 points, 17 rebounds, three assists and three steals.
