The Orlando Magic laid down the gauntlet bare in their offseason.
The team re-invested in the team that went 42-40 and finished as Southeast Division champions and the seventh seed in the Eastern Conference. It retained Nikola Vucevic, Terrence Ross and Michael Carter-Williams in free agency, essentially bringing back the exact same team as last year.
In a summer of massive change around the NBA, the only player the Magic truly added to the roster was Al-Farouq Aminu. Draft pick Chuma Okeke is not expected to play until mid-season.
