Celtics Beat Magic 108–97: Final Score, Tipoff, and Pregame Availability

Updated November 2, 2026: The Boston Celtics defeated the Orlando Magic 108–97 in their regular-season game on Sunday, November 1. The NBA.com scoreboard marks the matchup final. The game was played at Kia Center in Orlando, with tipoff scheduled for 3:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST, UTC−5), or 20:30 UTC. This update adds the verified result and keeps the pregame availability information clearly labeled as a historical snapshot.

Final score and game details

Boston finished with 108 points and Orlando with 97, an 11-point final margin. The game was the Celtics’ visit to the Magic at Kia Center, and its NBA game ID is 0022600154. Use that ID when looking up the official game hub, which links to the box score, play-by-play, and game charts. The final team score is confirmed; this article does not add player totals or a play-by-play account that has not been checked against the official game record.

• Result: Boston Celtics 108, Orlando Magic 97 (final)
• Date: Sunday, November 1, 2026
• Scheduled tipoff: 3:30 p.m. EST (20:30 UTC)
• Venue: Kia Center, Orlando, Florida
• NBA game ID: 0022600154

The time-zone label matters for archived schedules and calendars. U.S. daylight saving time ended at 2 a.m. local time on November 1, 2026, according to NIST. Orlando was therefore on Eastern Standard Time when the game began. A schedule showing 8:30 p.m. UTC refers to the same instant as 3:30 p.m. in Orlando; it is not an 8:30 p.m. local tipoff. The Kia Center event listing confirms the November 1 date and 3:30 p.m. start, while the NBA game page identifies Kia Center as the arena.

Official pregame availability snapshot

The NBA injury report stamped 1:30 p.m. ET on November 1 listed seven players as out before the scheduled tipoff: two for Boston and five for Orlando. The entries below preserve the report’s wording and timing. They are historical game-day statuses, not current injury updates.

An “out” designation describes the player’s reported availability for this game at the time of that report. NBA injury reports can be updated during the day, so an early-afternoon PDF should not be read as a complete record of every later status change, starting lineup, or on-court appearance. It also does not establish playing time, replacement rotations, or the effect an absence had on the final score. For those postgame questions, consult the game’s official box score and play-by-play rather than extending the meaning of an injury designation.

Because the result is now final, the table is useful as context for what was reported before the game, not as advice about the players’ next games. Injury descriptions are reproduced as listed in the dated report; they should not be treated as a new diagnosis or a forecast of recovery. For any later availability question, check a newer NBA report or a team announcement tied to that later game.

How to check the box score and replay

Open the NBA game page for Celtics at Magic, game ID 0022600154, and use its box score, play-by-play, or game-chart sections for the official record. The scoreboard is the quickest place to confirm the final team score. The detailed game page is more useful when you need to examine individual statistics or trace the sequence of plays. If a page or app does not show the video immediately, the score and game record remain separate from replay availability.

The NBA Help Center says League Pass subscribers can find full-game replays and condensed games in a game’s details section when those videos are available. Processing can take several hours after a game ends. In the United States, the stated replay window is 6 a.m. ET the following day for a nationally blacked-out game and three days after the game concludes for a locally blacked-out game. Local rights and account access may affect what a viewer can watch, so check the blackout guide and the options shown for your location instead of assuming every stream is available live or on demand.

For a future live game, the NBA’s Tap to Watch page directs fans to available national, local, or League Pass options based on the game and location. A television or streaming subscription may be required by the service carrying the broadcast. That tool is for live viewing; for this completed November 1 matchup, the NBA game page is the direct place to begin with the result and game record.
