ORLANDO MAGIC 100, Minnesota Timberwolves 92
Arron Afflalo snapped out of a late-season shooting slump by scoring 18 points on 8-of-15 shooting against the weary Timberwolves, who played a double-overtime game in Miami on Friday and went into Orlando without starters Kevin Love, Kevin Martin and Nikola Pekovic and lost Chase Budinger to an ankle injury less than a minute into the game. Tobias Harris and Maurice Harkless each scored 17 points for the Magic and Victor Oladipo added 16. Kyle O’Quinn finished with 14 points, 13 rebounds and four blocked shots and Jameer Nelson logged 12 assists. Ricky Rubio went for 18 points, 10 assists and three steals for Minnesota and Corey Brewer had 15 points and five steals. Dante Cunningham notched 12 points and three blocks.

Augustin led Chicago with 25 points and Joakim Noah had 21 points and 12 rebounds. Carlos Boozer chipped in 16 points and Jimmy Butler had nine assists. John Wall led the Wizards with 20 points and Marcin Gortat added 19.
