Magic Tweets of the Day

Only 5 points, 4 rebounds, and 1 assist but his impact was big.
.@OrlandoMagic C Nikola Vucevic on chants of "M-V-P!": "I have TV from Montenegro here, so I paid some fans to do that so I could look cool back home. It was awesome. To hear the fans say that, obviously it means a lot to me. It means they respect what I do, and they support me."
