Locked On Magic - Daily Podcast On The Orlando Magic

The Orlando Magic are all ready to welcome Paolo Banchero back to the lineup. He seems set to ignite the Magic's offense, which has shown promise but slowed in the last few games. It is easy to forget the Magic's lineup with Banchero is one of the best in the league -- and the Magic's lineup with Tristan da Silva has actually struggled. Banchero's return will recreate that lineup that has dominated the league early in the season and return da Silva to an improving bench group. It should be an overall boost for the team. There is still work to do. The Magic still must improve their jump shooting -- not just their 3-point shooting -- and they are staring at some tough rotation decisions as their rookies are making an early impact when they get their chance. 00:00 Paolo's Impact on Magic's Success 10:51 Magic's Shooting Struggles Persist 22:26 Magic's Shooting Woes Persist 25:00 Magic's Rotation and Paolo's Return 27:59 Jase Richardson Deserves More Minutes 32:04 Prioritize Young Players' Development Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic started their run to combat the San Antonio Spurs too late, only tying the game late before a pair of De'Aaron Fox free throws and a Luke Kornet block sealed their fate in a 114-112 defeat. The Magic were playing on their back foot the entire game and could not get over the hump against a surprisingly energetic Spurs team. Their habit of easing into games and trying to rescue them late finally cost them a winnable game. Despite this, the Magic continued to prove they are a strong team that can win even without their best efforts. But they cannot fall into the habit of leaving too many points on the board. The Magic also found a spark of energy from their two rookies once again as Noah Penda and Jase Richardson push for more minutes. 00:00 Magic Fall to Spurs 07:30 Magic's Missed Momentum Shift 12:40 Magic Seek Consistency and Hunger 17:01 Jase Deserves More Minutes 25:12 Making Opponents Pay for Mistakes Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic have surged to a 13-8 record after their slow start to the season. The turning point was Desmond Bane's game-winning shot against the Portland Trail Blazers. That released the pressure from the team and has unleashed Bane on the rest of the league. As the Magic look ahead to the next 20 games, they are top-10 in both offensive and defensive rating and should count themselves among the NBA's contenders. The second quarter of the season could cement their place at the top of the Eastern Conference if they can keep this level of play going. 00:00 Magic Shine in First Quarter of the Season 07:50 Desmond Bane's Early Season Impact 15:33 Magic's Offense Key to Contention 19:13 Orlando Magic Growing as Contenders 25:50 Magic's Favorable Schedule Highlights 27:36 Paolo Banchero's Return will Boost Magic Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic are trying to prove they can be among the elite teams. A win over the Chicago Bulls is not likely to prove that. But finding a way to win even on a bad night and willing themselves to victory is what the elite teams do. Desmond Bane scored 18 of his 39 points in the fourth quarter to help will the Magic to victory and Anthony Black helped spark the Magic back from a 15-point deficit. On a night when shots were not falling and the defense was far from perfect, the Magic delivered a victory to learn from. 00:00 Finding a Way to Win 07:26 Magic's Defense Sparks Comeback 13:05 Magic Struggle with Tempo Control 26:18 Jalen Suggs' Chaotic Performance Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic have surged into the top 10 in both offensive and defensive rating as they approach the quarter mark of the season. But they still have work to do and there are clear pressure points for them to cover as they continue to advance through the season. The Magic have feasted in transition but still struggle to make the half-court possessions that define Playoff basketball. Their defense is not creating turnovers at the same rate as it did last season while still establishing a consistent physicality. Players are also starting to feel the pressure, especially Tyus Jones and Jonathan Isaac. Both have come out of early-season frustrations to contribute more meaningfully. But they could be exploited later in the season. 00:00 Magic's Pressure Points 05:49 Magic Thrive in Transition Play 14:22 Magic's Defensive Improvement Analyzed 23:30 Tyus Jones: Magic's Veteran Leader Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

A month ago, the Orlando Magic were at rock bottom after the Detroit Pistons pushed them around and ran circles around them to complete a frustrating 1-4 start. The Magic did not back down in Friday's 112-109 victory, pushing first and pushing back to take the win against the Pistons with their gritty and physical identity. The Magic did not win this one with pretty offense or by outscoring the Pistons, they got back to they identity of grinding their way through games and leaning on their defense to get the job done. That is a formula they can follow as they climb the standings and prepare for the Playoffs. 00:00 Magic's Redemption & NBA Cup Win 05:59 Magic Show Resilience, Secure Win 17:44 Winning Comes Down to Shots 27:24 Magic Offense Misses Paolo Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic dismantled the Philadelphia 76ers in one of the best offensive showings in franchise history as the team continues to cement itself as a capable offensive team. No player exemplified the team's offensive potential and shift in mindset as Anthony Black. His 20 second-quarter points on his way to a career-high 31 points changed the game and turned it into not only a rout but a historic performance. Black's aggressive mindset has been an ongoing development throughout the season. And when he is playing with that mindset, he changes the entire team's outlook. He becomes a magnet for the ball and can convert at the rim. The win has not put the Magic in a very good spot to advance in the NBA Cup. 00:00 Franchise Scoring Record Set 08:44 Anthony Black's Impact Explained 17:08 Magic's Quarter-Season Strengths 25:26 Franz's Steady Impact & Bain's Role 35:45 Magic's NBA Cup Stakes Explained Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Paolo Banchero is inching closer to a return from his strained groin. There is already some handwringing and belief that he may derail the offensive growth the team has gone through. The numbers from before his injury do not support that. They support that Banchero will boost the team's offense with his improved efficiency and driving and potential to be another ace passer. The Magic are seemingly about to take another big leap with his return. The truth is the Magic's offense seemed poised to take a major leap as the team played together more and understood their offense. Their growth in transition has especially turned the Magic into one of the best offenses in the league. Plus, it is an NBA Cup night. What do the Magic need from their game against the Philadelphia 76ers to advance and position themselves for the wild card? 00:00 Paolo Banchero's Impact Debate 09:04 Magic Lineup Dynamics Explained 18:57 Magic Excel in Transition Play 26:00 Magic's NBA Cup Pursuit Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic's deep bench sparked a furious fourth-quarter comeback before giving way to the Boston Celtics on the second night of a back-to-back. Jett Howard, Jase Richardson and Noah Penda all impressed in extended playing time to lead the comeback. All three showed enough fight and production to push for playing time in the Magic's regular rotation. Howard scored 22 of his 30 points in the fourth quarter and Richardson added 18 to lead the Magic back from a 26-point deficit, cutting it to six before the Celtics held on thanks to Jaylen Brown's 3-point shooting. The Magic lost the game in the second quarter when they let frustration beat them and the Celtics punished them for every mismanaged rotation or poor spacing on offense. 00:00 Magic's Brutal Back-to-Back Schedule 05:04 Jett Howard and Jase Richardson Shine 10:42 Young Players Deserve More Time 16:30 Isaac's Game Struggles Explained 21:57 Magic's Chemistry & Schedule Loss 28:42 Brown Shines, Magic Struggle 34:23 Magic's Focus Falters vs. Celtics Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic overwhelmed the New York Knicks with a decisive 13-0 run in the fourth quarter. It was the kind of run that showed the team's inevitability and how the Magic can potentially devastate teams with timely runs and killer defense. This is a trait of every championship team. The Magic got contributions throughout the roster from stars like Franz Wagner and Desmond Bane carrying the scoring weight to Jalen Suggs and Anthony Black providing key defensive possessions. Even the coaches stepped up for each other with Jamahl Mosley staying in the locker room at halftime due to an illness. The Magic again made a statement against a fellow Eastern Conference contender as their turnaround continues. 00:00 Magic's Game-Changing Winning Run 08:45 Magic Aspiring for Greatness 16:36 Magic Triumphs with Team Effort 22:35 Magic's Character-Building Victory 26:42 Franz Leads Orlando's Offensive Surge 28:36 Desmond Bane's Growing Comfort Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Jalen Suggs is unleashed at long last as he appears to be past his minute restriction and let loose on unsuspecting offenses. The LA Clippers learned that the hard way in a 129-101 Orlando Magic victory on Thursday. Suggs has long been the team's heart and "head of the snake." But injuries have slowed him down. Now he is learning to pick his spots better and is more consistently impacting games in a positive way. Suggs finished with 23 points, seven assists, two steals and two blocks, setting the tone with his defense and his three-point shooting to lead the way for the Magic. Orlando used its defense to set up its offense, scoring a near-franchise-record 41 fast break points. The Magic continued their winning ways with this dominant victory. 00:00 Jalen Suggs Unleashed on Clippers 08:04 Magic Transformation with Suggs 15:41 Magic's Improved Transition Game 24:25 Suggs Leads as Magic Struggle Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic had a rocky start that sent everyone panicking and worrying about the team and its future. But the team has turned it around, finding its defensive identity and enough offense to show improvement. Everything is trending in the right direction for them. There is still plenty of work to do. It is too early in the season to say anything has stuck. And most of the Magic's challenge for the next phase of the season is to cement their identity on both ends. The Magic are getting plenty from their two stars as they continue to grow into leadership roles. Desmond Bane has started to get comfortable in his role with this team. And Jalen Suggs and Wendell Carter have put in a strong season so far. 00:00 Magic's Early Season Assessment 09:24 Magic Finding Offensive Identity 15:58 Magic's Duo Shines Bright 21:07 Desmond Bane's Struggles Persist 30:04 Tight NBA Standings Analysis 33:14 Steve Kerr on NBA Injuries Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic rallied past the Golden State Warriors to score a big win, recovering from Sunday's disappointing defeat. The Magic seem to have found their identity and their formula to win as they continue their strong run after their slow start to the season. The Magic got huge games from Anthony Black and Desmond Bane to help pace them through the game. And Jalen Suggs' return helped wear down Stephen Curry and set the tone for the team defensively. Orlando is getting back to its identity and the wins are coming after it. 00:00 Magic's Opportunity for Redemption 08:28 Resilience Secures Magic's Victory 14:26 Curry's Impact vs. Magic Defense 23:30 Anthony Black's Aggressive Impact 31:09 Tyus Jones Impresses in Win Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic's ambitions for the season may rest on Anthony Black's development. He has shown plenty of improvement and promise early in the season. But his flaws and inconsistency are still costing the team in critical moments, like the end of Sunday's loss to the Houston Rockets. Statistically, the Magic tend to go how Black's shooting goes. That makes him a vital player who could lift the Magic's ceiling or keep them struggling to reach that potential. Black will be key to powering the team's struggling bench, especially with Tyus Jones continuing to struggle. And his future could be on the line as the team tries to figure out how to climb into contention. 00:00 Anthony Black's Rising Impact 18:20 Tyus Jones' Struggles in Orlando 24:04 Evaluating Tyus Jones' Future 29:27 Magic's Bench Determines Success Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic fell in overtime to the Houston Rockets despite missing Paolo Banchero and Jalen Suggs. They look more and more like the team everyone imagined they could be. But even though they led for most of the game, several key details were missing that cost them in the fourth quarter and overtime. The Magic's offense continued to slow down at critical junctures and missed free throws, particularly a miss late in regulation by Anthony Black, kept the door open to lead to a loss to a championship-caliber team. Orlando is still working on itself to reach a championship level. 00:00 Durant's Brilliance vs Magic Pressure 09:13 Magic's Loss Highlights Costly Mistakes 17:34 Magic's Progress Despite Loss 22:25 Process Over Results Driving Magic 29:05 Franz Wagner's Mixed Performance Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic edged out the Brooklyn Nets thanks to a pair of clutch 3-pointers from Franz Wagner and an 11-0 run that rescued the game. Orlando was happy to survive this scare and score the victory. But they were unahppy for all the mistakes they made and their failure to play up to their exacting standards. If the Magic are the team they think they can be, they will have to play with more precision and focus. Still, gutting out a win is a valuable skill too. The Magic will take every win they can get as they climb above .500 and stake a good spot in the NBA Cup standings. 00:00 Magic Rally for Stunning Victory 09:33 Magic's Resilience and Improvements 15:49 Magic's Missteps and Expectations" 26:21 Magic Struggle Against Pressure Defense 31:01 Sloppy Play and Missed Shots Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic brace for a pivotal stretch as Paolo Banchero suffers a left groin strain and will miss at least one game -- and probably more. Franz Wagner and Desmond Bane will have to step up and take on a bigger role to help the Magic stay afloat and continue growing. The Magic proved they could do it last year. Ryam Kaminsky of Orlando Magic on SI joins the show for part two of our conversation to break down how the Magic's attack is changing and how the Magic can continue to evolve their offense. 00:00 Orlando Magic's Next Steps 07:03 Franz's Growth & Bane's Role 17:59 Confidence Key for Contenders' Success 24:19 "Building Chemistry on the Court" Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic will be without Paolo Banchero for at least one game -- and probably longer -- as an MRI confirmed that he strained his groin. All eyes turn to Franz Wagner then to lead the team like he did last year. The Magic are prepared to handle Banchero's absence thanks to that run last year. And it could be good for getting Wagner and Desmond Bane going after slow starts to the season. The Magic have started to find their identity and their way after starting 1-4 this season. Ryan Kaminski of Orlando Magic on SI joins the show to dive into the playbook and discuss the changes the Magic have made this season and how they have been able to fight their way back to .500 early this season. 00:00 Paolo Banchero out with injury 08:50 Magic Confident in Franz Wagner 15:27 Defense Shines, Bane Leads Offense 23:37 Paolo's Impact on Offensive Efficiency 30:41 Maximizing Suggs and Bane's Spacing 35:53 Offense Needs Variety and Creativity Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic silenced their critics and a lot of noise with a commanding 124-107 rout of the New York Knicks on national TV. The Magic re-established their defensive identity and stifled a powerful Knicks offense, using that to power their own scoring and race ahead in the middle two quarters. After struggling through the first weeks of the season, the Magic have started to find some rhythm and pick up wins. They have changed their narrative over the course of the past two weeks to reclaim a spot among the East contenders. With Paolo Banchero suffering an injury midway through the game, players throughout the roster stepped up on both ends to deliver the victory. Something the team should be able to carry over to their NBA Cup game on Friday against the Brooklyn Nets. 00:00 Patience amid early struggles 09:06 Magic's dominant national TV win 17:52 Magic's momentum 23:44 Paolo Banchero Injury Update 28:19 Desmond Bane's key role Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
