Context
From the rows this page already reads

- Previous appearance: Apr 27, 2026, 2 days earlier.
- Earlier in this series: 4 points (Game 1), 3 points (Game 2), 2 points (Game 3), 2 points (Game 4).
- The source holds fewer Magic regular-season games than the 2025-26 regular season had, so the usual line counts only the games it holds.
