Vest - Franz Wagner
The punch that Franz threw at CLE was powerful beyond comprehension. Because the Magic were DOWN by 9 at the beginning of it, the beginning of the 3rd. And that was when Franz turned the game off for CLE. Game over, an ORL win for a 2-2 Series tied.
Cummerbund - Jalen Suggs
For the fact that Jalen is in our core 3, I live with like 3 of his TO's specifically and liked what ORL was trying to do. Look at the rest of his game today. All NBA team level of defense and energy. Motivates the team like crazy. 40 3P% and 2nd leading scorer among the starters.
Mittens - Jonathan Isaac
Franz had such a game today that whatever energy and crowd-pumping motivation Mo Wagner was giving to us, it was going to Franz seven-fold. So I have no problem with Mo getting the Mittens too. But Isaac, man. Doesn't overthink it. "I'm open at the 3. Bet." Most 3's by any Magic player in this series, to go with 7 boards, 2 blocks, 1 steal and the second best boxscore +/- after superstar Franz Wagner. Also highly considered Paolo Banchero and Markelle Fultz.
Recap Thoughts -

Franz
JI
Suggs- he had Garland ready to fight lmao, and Garland is usually a very chill guy
shout out to Fultz for playing well. WCJ for boxing out and playing very good defense. Paolo has also stepped up defensively this series, but especially the past two games.

Sweater Vest is easy. It gets tricky after that as quite a few guys played well.
I’ll go with:
Franz
Isaac
Suggs
Big shout outs to Fultz, Carter and Mo!

Clear vest to F-Wagner, that frankly should be unanimous.
I like Fultz for the cummerbund. Really critical 1st half minutes.
Isaac for the mittens, over Suggs. Just loved JI's energy a touch over Suggs.
Lollipops: Suggs, Carter (those two threes!), and M-Wagner.
And a kitten riding a unicorn to Okeke for his Purrfection!

V- ONLYFRANZ!!! - 34 pts, 13 rbs that's insane
C- Mo Buckets - he got the crowd pumped and thus our team too
M- Fultz he came out and scored, nothing pretty, nothing crazy, just scored when we needed it

Franz, obviously.
Mo for the energy and some sweet plays and for being shaq’s favorite player
Wendell for being tough again and doing what we need him to do. Also those two big threes
Shoutout Suggs for the defense and T with garland
And fultz for not sucking

Franz unleashed another level this game. He also went into beast mode after his brother’s early bravado and hyping up the crowd. Anyone who underestimates Mo’s value has also got to look at his positive influence on his brother at this point.
So many players helped in this one. From Suggs getting in the face of Garland to Mo blowing up to Fultz showing up to Isaac scoring a bunch including a hilarious bank three…too much awesomeness!

Franz
Suggs
Wendell - I almost want to give him 2nd place, because he was critical in the Magic taking the lead in the 3rd. Back to back 3’s, great defense on Mobley, helped get us an 8 point lead before he was subbed out with 3 minutes to go in the 3rd. Then Isaac and Suggs sealed the coffin.

Franz is clear vest winner. As far as the rest of the outfit, really hard to pick. Was such a team effort.
Extend Suggs ASAP!!

Gonna go:
V: Franz, not much to think about there. Awesome performance.
C: JI, gamechanger off the bench. Every one of his threes felt huge.
M: Fultz, gave us a lift when we really needed it. Also this might be the last opportunity to give him something in one of these threads, so I'm taking it. I strongly considered Suggs, but 7 turnovers is kind of yucky from a guy who doesn't have the ball in his hands that much. Markelle also got 2 offensive rebounds, which is nice from a guard.
