For the first time in a number of years, the Orlando Magic organization hosted fans (in-person) Thursday night for a 2021 NBA Draft watch party inside the Amway Center.
The event was free for to attend, but inside the arena, Magic fans certainly weren’t free of things to enjoy. The 2009 Eastern Conference Finals trophy was on display, providing fans an opportunity to snap a photo as well as reminisce about better times (and better times ahead?). Young fans were able to partake in a basketball-themed tic-tac-toe game (not on the floor – which was just recently waxed – but right behind the visitor’s baseline), while older fans were able to throw some cornhole bags around to calm their nerves before Orlando made their two picks in the top-eight of this year’s draft.
