Orlando Magic set record - The Wagner brothers' uncanny NBA winning streak continues
The Orlando Magic are the team of the moment in the NBA. The talented team sets a historic club record. Franz and Moritz Wagner have played a decisive role. Meanwhile, things are not going quite so well for Dennis Schröder and his Raptors.
The winning streak of basketball world champions Franz and Moritz Wagner with Orlando Magic in the NBA goes on and on: with the 130:125 victory over the Washington Wizards, the team from Florida set its own franchise record with its ninth successive win. Franz Wagner excelled as the game's best scorer with 31 points - his brother Moritz contributed 18 points.
"You also have to win the nasty games," said Moritz Wagner after the laborious victory over the basement team from Washington. Despite all the joy, he did not want to overestimate his team's impressive run: "Everyone is working very hard, it doesn't happen overnight. It's nice to see that things are going well, but we have to stay focused. We haven't achieved anything yet."
Orlando already has the chance to set a new record of ten wins in a row on Sunday in the away game against the Brooklyn Nets. Another tricky task awaits against the mid-table team. "It's always difficult to win in this league," said Wagner.
Setback for Dennis Schröder
National team captain Dennis Schröder, on the other hand, suffered a setback in the battle for a play-off place. The point guard lost 106:119 with the Toronto Raptors against the German center Isiah Hartenstein and the New York Knicks. Schröder scored ten points and nine assists - Hartenstein scored four points in 16 minutes.
Superstar Kevin Durant reached another milestone in his successful career during the night. The 35-year-old scored 30 points in the 111:119 defeat of his Phoenix Suns against the champion Denver Nuggets and climbed to tenth place on the league's all-time scoring list with a total of 27,423 points. He thus overtook three-time MVP Moses Malone.
The Dallas Mavericks lost 94-108 to the Memphis Grizzlies without Luka Dončić, who was absent at short notice for personal reasons, and Maxi Kleber, who is still injured. The San Antonio Spurs lost 106-121 at the New Orleans Pelicans and conceded their 14th defeat in a row. Number one draft pick Victor Wembanyama had to sit out due to hip problems.
