LEGACY: Orlando Magic Bring Back Nikola Vucevic to CHASE a Playoff Breakthrough

Nikola Vucevic officially rejoined the Orlando Magic, explaining that his return was not simply about a very welcomed homecoming. He saw in the Magic a team eager to take the next step and add a last piece to his legacy. He, like the team, wants to win. And that is vitally important as he nears the end of his career. Getting there will be the challenge. Coach Sean Sweeney and his staff have begun working with the team in Summer League. They are providing some hints on what will be important to the Magic under a new coach. To be sure, this is a pressure-packed season. Not only do the Magic have to improve without many meaningful changes to the roster, they are also facing the realities of the luxury tax and tax aprons. The Magic cannot stick together if they are not competing for a championship. 00:00 Magic player departures and Vucevic's return 04:19 Discussing Vucevic's role with Magic 11:41 Getting to Know Sean Sweeney 17:44 Magic's new offensive strategy 23:38 Magic's upcoming season challenges 27:11 NBA teams navigating spending limits 30:59 Orlando Magic's championship expectations Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
