Magic Tweet of the Day
.@OrlandoMagic G Evan Fournier on impassioned speech given by Nikola Vucevic Sat: "We’re not stupid; we know that if we don’t make the playoffs this year, this is probably it for us. Just like (Vucevic) and myself, we like it (in Orlando) and we like to play with each other."
