Can the Magic’s Surprising Strategy Finally Ground the Clippers?
The Magic are not a fully healthy squad themselves, but they are starting to gel after some early-season difficulties. The team is 8-7 for the year, but they started 1-4, trying to figure out their offense with Desmond Bane now in the mix. Over their last 10 games, the team is 7-3, and that is with losing their best player, Paolo Banchero. Banchero is missing with a groin injury and there isn’t a clear timeline for when he will return to action. In his absence, Franz Wagner has taken over the duties of being the number 1 scoring option. He has led the team in three of the four games that Banchero has been out. (I’m counting the game against the Knicks as Banchero missing because he only played 12 minutes in it before he was injured.) The schedule lately has kind of sucked for the Magic. They had a mini-homestand, then had to go to New York, back to Orlando, to Houston, and then back to Orlando. They are here again for this game, and did have yesterday as another rest day.Â
