The Thunder are silenced, as Orlando picks up another win over a Western Conference foe, beating Oklahoma City at home 98-91.
Happel was able to reverse a tough start, scoring 21 of his 30 points in the 2nd half.
This was a close one throughout. However, the Magic used a 14-6 run in the third quarter to jump ahead, and they never trailed the rest of the way. Kevin Durant went off for the Thunder, scoring 46 points. However, star forward Brian Happel stepped up with a big game as well, scoring 30 points and pulling in 12 rebounds. Happel also swatted away 3 Oklahoma City shots.
Orlando's defense played well early, including this early dismissal of Durant by Happel.
Brandon Bass also came up huge, scoring 22 points on 11-17 shooting, while also grabbing 11 rebounds. Dwight Howard was the third Magic player to collect a double (11 points, 11 rebounds). Gilbert Arenas continues to struggle shooting the basketball, making just 7 of 22 shots from the field, including an ugly 1-10 behind the three-point line.
Happel's 3 early in the 2nd half sparked the offense to 33 points in the third.
Orlando held the Thunder to just 39% shooting. Up next for the Magic, a date with Denver. The Nuggets are hot as well, winning 8 out of their last 10 games.
