For a Magic team coming off a season in which they made a 17-win improvement, finished over .500, won a division title, and made it to the playoffs for the first time in seven years, there has been some added intrigue surrounding the schedule release.
We now know that we are 72 days away from Orlando Magic regular season basketball!
The schedule was released on Monday and the Magic will kick off the 2019-2020 season at home against the Cleveland Cavaliers on October 23. That breaks a three-year streak of opening the season against the Heat at home (the Magic are 2-1 in those games).
