The story coming into preseason showdown number 2 for the Magic was the return of Franz Wagner, the sophomore forward back on the NBA court for the first time since his impressive showing at the EuroBasket tournament. And although he picked up right where he left off – and was complemented on the night by an equally outstanding Wendell Carter Jr. – it was actually his older brother who would finish the game as the team’s leading man. A high energy fourth quarter saw Moe Wagner first bring the Magic back into the contest and then lead the team to the win, Orlando running out 102-99 victors on the night.
