Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, July 13) — Kai Sotto was glued to the bench for the third straight time as the Orlando Magic continued their winless run in the NBA Summer League.
The Magic suffered an 82-80 overtime loss to the New York Knicks Thursday (Philippine time) at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.
Knicks guard Jaylen Martin sank the game-winning floater to lift New York past Orlando in a thrilling conclusion.
Magic’s Summer League head coach Dylan Murphy stuck with a 10-man rotation, which left Sotto watch the entire match at the sideline.
Jett Howard, the 11th pick in this year’s NBA Draft, led Orlando with a game-high 22 points and three rebounds.
Charlie Brown paced New York with 19 markers, six boards, and two dimes.
