Locked On Magic - Daily Podcast On The Orlando Magic

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!

The Orlando Magic edged past the Portland Trail Blazers to improve to 4-2 in their last six games. The team appears to have turned at least a minor corner to pick up wins and gain ground in the early part of the season. But it still does not feel like the team is where everyone thinks it should be. There are still a lot of mistakes and flaws for the team to clean up. It was evident in that win on Monday as the Magic had to scramble to preserve the win with a buzzer-beater. A lot of the problems are familiar. They continue to struggle with turnovers and offensive stagnation. Their 3-point shooting is spotty at best and leaving a lot to be desired. The only good news is that Jalen Suggs has emerged as a vital player, making their lineups elite and helping them get a jumpstart in almost any game.

The Orlando Magic escaped the Portland Trail Blazers thanks to a dramatic buzzer-beating three from Desmond Bane. Can this be a turning point for him and the Magic in the beginning of the season? Bane has struggled to start the year and even struggled to find three-point shots. The Magic came out determined to get him going and he took his share of shots, leading the team for long stretches with 22 points and seven assists. The Magic as a group need to continue to find their togetherness. They put together some truly great stretches before a shaky finish nearly derailed the game. Paolo Banchero dominated for long stretches before a roller coaster finish saw him be both hero and goat before Bane stole back the game. 00:00 Desmond Bane's Turning Point 08:22 Magic's Turning Point Question 19:42 Team Needs Improvement to Win 24:33 Magic's Three-Point Struggles Discussed 31:52 Magic's Offense Struggles Progression Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic gave away their chance to sweep the Boston Celtics as turnovers once again gutted the Magic and slowed their offense to a crawl. Orlando's 17 turnovers led to 29 Boston points and it was the only thing an angry Jamahl Mosley wanted to mention after the game. The Magic have been one of the worst teams in the league at protecting the ball and it continues to derail their progress as they try to live up to their lofty expectations. Every problem the Magic has springs from this turnover issue. And Orlando will not be able to take advantage of its stellar offensive lineup until it fixes this problem. 00:00 Magic's Frustrations and Mistakes 15:33 Magic Offense Sparks Comeback 21:52 Magic Fall Short vs Celtics 25:57 Suggs' Minutes and Performance Updates 29:49 Magic Bench Struggles Continue Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic's Paolo Banchero has been a lightning rod for criticism throughout his career and especially early in the season as the Magic have struggled. But during the Magic's road trip, Banchero found a way to impact games and evolve his play in unexpected ways. Paolo Banchero’s recent surge—highlighted by rebounding, assists, and defensive stats—shows he’s evolving beyond just scoring, even as critics question his shooting efficiency.

The Orlando Magic face mounting pressure as they struggle to start the season. Jamahl Mosley's future is under fire among fans as the team fails to meet expectations.

The Orlando Magic fell to the Atlanta Hawks 127-112 as they again struggled to step to the plate on national TV. Their familiar issues of turnovers, fouling and inconsistent defense plagued them as they collapsed again. The Magic missed shots, and that seemed to be the catalyst for the team's frustrations and collapse once again. It is part of a pattern against quality competition that is holding the Magic back early in the season. So how do they fix it? That is a much more complicated question and one the Magic must answer to reach their potential and meet their expectations. Otherwise, the team might need to consider more drastic changes. 0:00 Intro 6:09 Turnovers and Transition Defense Killed Orlando 13:50 Schedule Loss Excuse or Deeper Problem? 21:31 Defense Must Lead the Way Forward 28:14 Paolo Delivers Despite Loss, Franz Struggles 35:20 Foul Trouble Derailed Magic's Defensive Identity Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic are trying to right the ship after a 3-4 start. But the underlying numbers tell a story of a team that is going to come together and succeed. The Magic's starting lineup is one of the best lineups in the league at the beginning of the season. That is a sign the Magic should be fine in the long run. This is the backbone for the team. There are still plenty of questions the Magic have to answer. Anthony Black has been inconsistent to start the season in a larger role. And Franz Wagner has started off strong from three. The question is whether it will last. 0:00 Intro 5:45 Comparing Magic's Lineup to League Leaders 12:21 Anthony Black's Development as Swing Player 22:09 Franz Wagner's Three-Point Shooting Breakthrough 29:19 Preview: Hawks Game as Season Turning Point Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Almost the entire NBA world has been overreacting to the Orlando Magic's early-season struggles. The team appears to be coming out of the early-season slump, and several key players are putting to rest some early criticisms they had faced. Paolo Banchero is often criticized for his efficiency and shot selection. But in the last four games, he has been a terror with his career-best true shooting percentage and efficiency numbers. Similarly, Wendell Carter is not considered a strong defensive big. But the numbers show Carter's defense has been stout and his offense has come around. The Magic are indeed starting to come together. 0:00 Intro 2:08 Magic's rough 1-4 start analyzed 5:41 Paolo Banchero's impressive statistical leap 11:17 Wendell Carter's underrated defensive impact 21:30 Desmond Bane's adjustment struggles 28:14 Patience needed for offensive cohesion Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic demolished the Washington Wizards 125-94 as both Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner lived in the paint and dominated the interior. The Magic have begun to put their vision together, playing better in transition and working inside out to get better shots and shots at the rim. More importantly, their defense is helping generate a lot of their offense as they dominated two inferior opponents to snap their losing streak.

The Orlando Magic snapped their four-game skid with a dominant 123-107 victory over the Charlotte Hornets. At long last, they returned to their disruptive defensive identity to slow down the Hornets and control the game's tempo. That enabled the Magic to set up their offense and get everyone involved as the offense overpowered the Hornets. Paolo Banchero was key to all of this as the hub of activity. He nearly poured in a triple-double and facilitated the movement throughout the offense before closing the door in the fourth quarter. The Magic are certainly back on the right track. 0:00 Intro 2:10 Defense returns to form against Hornets 10:49 Paolo Banchero's offensive evolution Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic have a lot of questions to ask themselves again as their defense collapsed in a crushing and embarrassing 135-116 loss to the Detroit Pistons. Once again, the Magic struggled to keep up their defensive intensity, parading the Pistons to the line all while their offense floundered in the second half after a strong showing in the first half. It is time for some serious soul-searching for Jamahl Mosley and his team as the Magic faltered again and let go of the rope, forsaking the identity that built the team into a juggernaut.

The Orlando Magic have stumbled to a 1-3 start as they have struggled to execute their fast-paced offense. Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner offered differing views on how to get the team to fix it. Wagner said he still has faith the team can come together and the pace will be good for them in the end. Banchero urged the team to find more structure and not simply run to run. The reality is that running and getting out in transition has helped the Magic in their best moments. And the numbers support the Magic have greatly improved in transition. It is something that can unlock more of the Magic. But they need the structure that comes from their stars. orladno needs their best players on the ball more. And that has not quite delivered this season. 0:00 Intro 0:36 Magic's Real Problem Isn't Playing Fast 2:39 Paolo and Franz's Different Perspectives 4:42 Paolo's Concerns About Lack of Structure 9:48 Magic Need Better Tempo Control 13:54 Getting Ball to Best Players More 18:28 Anthony Black's Increased Role and Turnovers 22:31 Eastern Conference Vibe Check 26:36 Every Team Has Early Season Struggles 29:42 Magic Closer Than We Think Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Orlando Magic's defensive woes finally broke as the Philadelphia 76ers torched the Magic in a 136-124 victory. Orlando's identity is built on its defense. And without being able to rely on it, the team is struggling to find its way early in the season. All of the big problems the Magic have are completely in their control -- whether it is the defense, the turnovers or the missed free throws. That is the frustrating part for the group. They clearly have the talent and the ability to be the team they expected to be. Getting all the pieces together has been a longer and more frustrating process than they imagined. 0:00 Intro: Magic's biggest problem needs fixing 5:51 Defense struggles and identity crisis 17:36 Magic beating themselves with mistakes 29:56 Analyzing the box score and key stats 35:32 Jalen Suggs and Anthony Black's performances Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
