The biggest surprise of the night for the Magic was the performance from Trevelin Queen. He finished the game with 24 points on 9-12 shooting from the floor in an impressive performance from the undrafted guard.

For Flamengo, former 2019 NBA draft pick Didi Louzada took to an NBA court for the first time since August 2022 while teammate Gui Deodado had 16 in the game. No other play for the team scored in double digits.

Taking a huge 30-14 lead at the end of the first quarter, the Magic would ride that knockout blow into the big win for their final game of the preseason. Their record, sitting at 3-1 for the preseason, gives Magic fans much to be excited for, this win coming without the aid of their starters and other important bench pieces.

The team hopes to ride this into their first game of the season against the Houston Rockets on Wednesday, October 25, where the team led by Jalen Green and Fred VanVleet will come to Orlando to start off both team's regular season.
