Magic PG Cole Anthony Key to Victory vs. Bulls
ORLANDO - Orlando Magic point guard Cole Anthony has dealt with ups and downs all season long, but one of his biggest highs came on Saturday night when he helped lead his team to victory against the Chicago Bulls.
Anthony scored 14 points and grabbed 11 rebounds off the bench for his third double-double of the season.

"I just had to re-lock in," Anthony said after the game. "I had to kind of take a step back. Re-assess kind of my goals and what I want to do, and so for me, I just had to go and get in that gym.
"I was just so happy that I was able to be out there and help contribute for this win.”
The Magic have a number of players who can help the team to victory, and as long as a few are on their A-game each night, Orlando has a great chance to win the game. That's the key to the Magic's success, and it allows each player to go through their development without needing to be perfect every night.
"That’s the make up of this team, guys that are going to keep fighting no matter what’s happening," coach Jamahl Mosley said. "Whether they’re in rotation or not in rotation they’re going to stay ready. And they’re going to do what’s right to help this team get a win.”
The Magic return to the court on Tuesday night when the Oklahoma City Thunder come to town. Tipoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET.
