• Paolo Banchero is out indefinitely: How the Magic keep their playoff hopes alive
    Nov 1 2024

    Paolo Banchero's injury is a game-changer for the Orlando Magic. With a torn right oblique sidelining him indefinitely, the Magic face a significant challenge to keep their playoff hopes alive. How will they adapt without their star player?

    They do not have a choice, they must find players to step up and into new roles and keep the ship steady until Banchero's return likely around Christmas or the New Year. The first thing they have to do is believe they can do it. Regardless, the Magic will find the limits for players like Franz Wagner, Jalen Suggs, Wendell Carter and more in the next month.

    Can the Magic stay competitive in the NBA without their leading scorer?

    Oct 30 2024

    Anthony Black's clutch three-pointer against the Indiana Pacers has the Orlando Magic buzzing. This game-winning shot not only showcased his growth but also solidified his role as a trusted player for this growing young team.

After the team hyped up his growth during training camp and the preseason, Black is delivering early in the season and becoming a player the team can trust.

    The Magic embark on a tough five-game road trip beginning Wednesday. It will be a test of their toughness and consistency. Why the team will rely on its grit to make sure they come out on top.

  • 50 Points: How Paolo Banchero made history for the Orlando Magic
    Oct 29 2024

    Paolo Banchero dazzled with a 50-point performance, leading the Orlando Magic to a thrilling 119-115 victory over the Indiana Pacers. This historic feat marks the first time a Magic player has hit 50 points since Tracy McGrady. He made history and established himself as a true star in this league.

    But it was not just the 50 points he scored, it was everything else he did that mattered for the team in the win. It was Banchero's willingness to pass up the biggest shot in the game and how he added rebounds, passing and defense to get the Magic over the finish line for the win.

    That is what makes Banchero special.

    Oct 26 2024

    Oct 24 2024
