Postgame Report: Magic vs. Hornets

ORLANDO – When the Orlando Magic return from the break for the NBA All-Star Game next week, head coach Frank Vogel says ``we’re going to be a different team,’’ what with the expected returns of Nikola Vucevic and Aaron Gordon and eventually Jonathan Isaac and Terrence Ross.

Maybe, just maybe, that full-strength version of the Magic will be able to eventually figure out the vexing problem that is the Charlotte Hornets.

All-star guard Kemba Walker, long a Magic killer with his quickness out of pick-and-roll plays and back-breaking shots, drilled a go-ahead 3-pointer with 1:11 to play and Charlotte made all the key plays down the stretch for a 104-102 defeat of the Magic.
