ORLANDO - The Orlando Magic averaged 109.3 points at home in 2018-19, their best home scoring average since the 1994-95 season and third best in franchise history.
Not only did the Magic’s offensive production at home help them reach the playoffs for the first time in seven years, it’s now about to help more children in the area become more proficient readers.
That’s because of some crucial behind the scenes work the Magic and Florida Blue are doing to improve literacy throughout Central Florida.
In an effort to develop lifelong learners, the Magic and Florida Blue teamed up for the ninth season and donated one book for every point Orlando scored at home through their Baskets for Books program.
