Thanks to a 25-point eruption from Franz Wagner, the Orlando Magic utilized a 42-point fourth quarter to snap a five-game losing skid and defeat

The Magic went 7-13 without Franz Wagner, who played the expected 24 minutes on Thursday. Orlando also lost center Moritz Wagner, Franz’s older brother, to a season-ending knee injury, and Suggs, who missed his 10th game with a lower back strain.

Pistons: Losing for only the second time in their last nine road games, the Pistons held the Magic to 18 points in the first quarter before fouls took their toll. The Magic shot 23 free throws in the first half, 38 in the game, and three Pistons finished the game with five fouls each.

Michigan basketball alumnus Franz Wagner scored 25 points in the fourth as the Detroit Pistons' slim lead evaporated in a 121-113 loss to the Magic.

Wagner was 1-of-12 from the field going into the fourth but recovered to make 9-of-10, etching his name into franchise history

Fourth-year Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner has been sidelined since Dec. 6, 2024 with a torn right oblique.

Franz Wagner’s Jan. 25 performance against the Detroit Pistons is forever etched into the Orlando Magic’s history books. With a 25-point fourth quarter, the budding superstar tied Tracy McGrady’s franchise record for most points in a single quarter.
