As the Orlando Magic prepare for their eighth and final seeding game in the NBA restart, they’ll look for a bounce-back win and a little momentum before their second season arrives.
If Wednesday’s practice is any indication, the effort Thursday night against the New Orleans Pelicans will be an improvement from the Magic’s previous game.
While his team faced the Nets on Tuesday without four key players, Magic coach Steve Clifford was frustrated with the lack of effort and energy in the 108-96 loss. Still, he saw no lingering effects from the setback during Wednesday’s practice session.
