Eastern Conference Showdown: Which Unexpected Team Will Rise to Dominate the NBA?
Orlando Magic – 41-41 – 7th
Orlando made a splash by getting shooter Desmond Bane from the Grizzlies in the offseason. It adds a much-needed option when this slow-paced team gets a bit stagnant. The Magic won 41 games last year with only half of a season from Paolo Banchero and Jalen Suggs. Suggs still has not been cleared to return, so his status is uncertain, and they aren’t overly deep, but this is a good team. 50.5 seems high, but I don’t think betting against it is the right answer. It is too health-dependent for me to make a determination on it.Â
