Orlando was the one that started better, and went up to a double-digit advantage in the first quarter with impressive offensive ability.
But the next three quarters were completely controlled by the Wizards, who won by a margin of 24 points in total - not least thanks to Abdia's increase in defense - and turned an early 12-point deficit into a smooth victory over the weak rival, which dropped to a 57:20 balance.
The final quarter was particularly dominant for the Wizards, who put up an ongoing attack and scored 41 points that left no chance for the Magic.
Kristaps Forzingis recorded his best game since joining the Wizards with 35 points (11 from 18 from the field, 10 from 13 from penalties) along with 8 rebounds, 3 assists and two blocks, Cantabius Caldwell Pop crossed the 20-point mark for the third game in a row and finished with 25, Daniel Gaford was the X Factor off the bench with 17, 7 rebounds and 3 blocks and Tomasz Storansky once again managed the game well, scoring a rare double-double of 13 assists and 10 rebounds, with no points.
