The Orlando Magic have had an intriguing season. One the fans did not expect so far.
In the short-term, there was the thrill of winning seven of nine games and racing up the Eastern Conference standings. A 10-12 start is not typically something to celebrate. After all, the Magic started 12-10 in the 2016 season.
The Magic have had better starts even during this rebuild. But there is a new energy around this team.
This version of the Orlando Magic is not a plodding team. They are one with the outline of an identity.
