Magic Starting 5: Shaq in Hospital; Orlando Back Home vs. Wizards
1. MAGIC LEGEND SHAQUILLE O'NEAL IN HOSPITAL
"Orlando Magic legend Shaquille O'Neal took to Twitter Sunday night, posting a photo of himself in a hospital bed. The 2016 Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame inductee included a caption directed toward his NBA on TNT crew members Ernie Johnson and Candace Parker."
2. BULLS GRAB BIG WIN, HURTING MAGIC PLAYOFF & DRAFT HOPES
The Chicago Bulls pulled off an upset victory on the road against the Philadelphia 76ers Monday night.
The win puts the Bulls 5.5 games ahead of the Orlando Magic for the final play-in spot. It also hurts the Magic's draft positioning as Orlando has Chicago's draft pick this year as part of the Nikola Vucevic trade two years ago.
3. JAMAHL MOSLEY ON POWER FORWARDS
"Nonetheless, the game has evolved and has entered a second golden era of the point guard, as well as an NBA heaven for power forwards. Magic forwards Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner -- who interchangeably switch between the 3 and the 4 -- are benefactors of a favorable NBA climate, and have been able to showcase unique skillsets that give coach Mosley the luxury to play around with lineups as well as the X's and O's."
4. TUESDAY NIGHT'S GAMES
5. NEXT MAGIC GAME
The Magic will return to the court tonight against the Washington Wizards at 7:00 p.m. You can watch in-market on Bally Sports Florida or out-of-market on NBA League Pass.
