The Orlando Magic have now lost 12 straight games against the Washington Wizards, as John Wall and company remained a step ahead of Orlando on both ends of the court.

The Orlando Magic knocked on the door for the majority of its 105-99 loss to the Washington Wizards on Saturday night, but John Wall was able to keep Washington’s offense ticking. The Wizards were efficient and knocked down their 3-point shot.

While the Magic were able to stay within a fighting shot of catching the Wizards, the Magic simply could not sustain the Wizards’ runs long enough to gain an advantage in this one.
