NEW YORK — Mikal Bridges scored 42 points, including 26 in the first quarter, and the Brooklyn Nets snapped the Orlando Magic's nine-game winning streak with a 129-101 victory Saturday night. The Magic were hoping for the first 10-game winning streak in franchise history but had little hope after Bridges outscored them by himself as the Nets ran out to a 43-22 lead after 12 minutes. It was Magic's first loss since Nov. 14, when the Nets beat them 124-104 in their previous trip to Barclays Center. Bridges shot 12 for 20 from the field and 15 for 18 from the free throw line, falling three points shy of his career high.
