Orlando Magic PUTTING PIECES TOGETHER in preseason opener | Jase Richardson’s STUNNING turnaround
The Orladno Magic showed flashes of their potential in the preseason opener against the Miami Heat as they rallied in the second half to score the win.
The starters showed they can put the pieces together and improve as they continue to play together with Desmond Bane making a solid debut and Paolo Banchero starring on defense.
The team’s potential for growth was seen most in Jase Richardson, who turned from a rookie into the catalyst for the Magic’s victory. Richardson scored all 13 of his points in the third quarter as he suddenly clicked with the NBA court and looked comfortable for the team.
This game was a solid place for the Magic to grow.

Lol Phillip calling it out like it is on the Heat bringing their “Heat culture” court to Puerto Rico 😂😅. This was a good win let’s keep building go Magic play the song :)🙌💙🖤🎵💫
Tristan will be really good 👍 this year 🎉
A lot of encouraging signs during this first preseason game. I'm excited to see the evolution of this team.
Dru Smith played 10 minutes and Norm Powell played well for the Heat, as far as guards go…
Why do we keep bringing up richardson's height? he measured the same height as garland and pritchard with way more wingspan and vertical than both. they seem to be doing just fine in the league.
Lets gooo we are finals bound Philip 🪄🦖
If AB has any trade value at all it’s time to move on. Offensively he’s a liability and really haven’t seen that much growth in him at all.
I still don't understand the Penda pick, Jace is a hooper though.
JR played really well, looked a bit out of shape to me. But definitely plays better than I thought he would 💪🏽
AB and Issac eat up valuable minuets despite their nonexistent offense. Jet and Issac were both a -12 as well. That’s against Miamis deep bench.
IF I HEAR “KICKED OUT TO WENDELL CARTER FOR A 3” ALL YEAR IM GONNA LOSE MY SHITE
Looking at what they did well, this game was very encouraging. The ball did not stick, kept popping, lots of movement. Pushing the pace, inside out, good defense and hustle for a preseason game. Jett putting it on the floor encouraging 50% pct. Jase wow i did not expect this type of game from him.
I noticed you didn't mention JI. One preseason game, but JI looked like last year's JI. His decision making on offense continues to hurt the team and his jump shot mechanics are not repeatable. He is consistently drifting when he shoots and he takes questionable shots that are not in the flow of the offense. That spinning 3 pointer he took made me cringe.
Only watched the first half, but I liked how Wendell played, and Tristan is gonna go beast mode this season
