Orlando overcame a 16-point deficit before holding on to a one-point advantage in the endgame to frustrate Golden State, 130-129.
It’s the Magic’s second win of the season, led by Jalen Suggs, who tied his NBA career-high 26 points with clutch baskets.
The home team went off in the second half, scoring 43 points in the third and 34 in the fourth to get a morale booster win against the defending champions.
They outrebounded the visiting squad 46-35 as Draymond Green and Kevon Looney got in foul trouble.
Paolo Banchero supported Suggs’ performance with 22 markets, followed by 19 of Franz Wagner.
Meanwhile, the Splash Brothers played tremendously but needed to be more. Stephen Curry dropped 39 points, while Klay Thompson balled his best game so far with 27 buckets on seven triples.
