Magic Headlines

The Magic were dominated by the Rockets’ role players, writes our Will Ogburn in his game recap.

The Magic offense faltered against the Rockets, shooting just 38.5 percent, including 6 of 31 from three, writes Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel.

With the Magic on pace to shoot the most threes in a single season in franchise history, Frank Vogel views Mike D’Antoni as a pioneer in the league’s current style of play, Robbins writes.

Vogel is impressed with Houston’s offensive execution, writes John Denton of OrlandoMagic.com.

The Magic struggled with their shooting as badly as they have at any point this season, setting a season low for points in a quarter with 12 in the first, Denton writes.

The Magic’s two leading scorers, Aaron Gordon and Evan Fournier, each earned a “C-” for their performances against the Rockets in the nightly grades column by Philip Rossman-Reich of Orlando Magic Daily.

Having struggled to close out games of late, the Magic must explore their late-game options, Rossman-Reich writes.

The Rockets were too much for the Magic, even without James Harden, writes Darren Yuvan of The Dream Shake.

Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle writes that the Magic were "shooting three-pointers as if blindfolded."

The Orlando garage sale could get busy as the Magic try to get their best shot at a top-three pick, writes Haley O'Shaughnessy and Paolo Uggetti in The Ringer's Buy or Sell story.

The Sixers should trade for Aaron Gordon, writes Mark Wilson of Inquisitr.
