Magic Coach Jamahl Mosley Ready for 'Opportunity' vs. Heat
The Orlando Magic has been dealing with its fair share of injuries as of late, and it has caused the team's record to slip a bit.
The team has lost five of its last six games, as the team is having a hard time adjusting ti playing without Franz Wagner in the lineup. But head coach Jamahl Mosley knows that the team can do it, and talked more about his mindset in a recent interview.

"I think every game is another opportunity," Mosley said. "That's the great part about the NBA. You can hurt for the one that you lose, but then you got another opportunity to change it on Sunday."
The silver lining for today's game is that Wagner has been upgraded to questionable instead of out. But even if the star forward doesn't end up playing, the Magic has players that have recently come back from injury that are helping the team in whatever way they can, such as Markelle Fultz and Wendell Carter Jr.
The Magic is still in the playoff picture at the moment with the eight-seed, but the team has been slipping down the standings for the last couple of weeks. It will be looking to make its way back up the rankings and make some noise in the latter half of the regular season.
The Magic will be back in action tonight against the Miami Heat in the team's second game of a three-game home stand. Tipoff is set for 6 p.m. ET in the Kia Center.
