The tail end of the Orlando Magic's furious third-quarter comeback against the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday was certainly thrilling.

After being outscored 27-13 in the second stanza, the Magic came out of halftime with a purpose, rattling off 36 points in the third - 11 points more than Atlanta.

With just over a minute remaining before the start of the fourth quarter, Hawks All-Star Paul Millsap took it upon himself to stop the bleeding with this posterization of 7-footer Nikola Vucevic.

Moments later, Evan Fournier and Victor Oladipo responded with an enchanting two-man game of their own which gave the Magic a one-point lead going into the fourth.

What a fastbreak finish! 😱

The Hawks rallied back in the end, however, pulling out a 103-100 victory.
