Franz Wagner, Desmond Bane Power the Orlando Magic to a Win over the Celtics
The Celtics can take first place in the 2025 NBA Cup Group B with a win over the Magic, after a narrow victory against the 76ers, league sources said.
- On Friday, the Celtics can claim first place in East Group B with a win over Magic, after starting 1-0 in group play following their win over the Sixers.
- Each Group B team plays four games—two home, two away—and point differential is a key tiebreaker, with the top teams and wild cards advancing to knockout rounds starting Dec. 9 and Dec. 10.
- In the game, Jaylen Brown scored 32 points, Payton Pritchard added 27, and Orlando shot 50% overall, making 17 of 36 3-pointers at the Kia Center.
- Because Detroit and Brooklyn play Friday, Group B standings could shift as the Celtics, now 4-6 and 1-1, prepare to host the Nets on Nov. 21 and Pistons on Nov. 26 at TD Garden.
- The tournament also serves to keep teams engaged throughout the 80-game season, offers players up to $530,933 for winning, and schedules makeup games on Dec. 11/12 and Dec. 14/15.
