Yeah, Vuc has a strained right shoulder. Doesn't sound like it's anything serious, and I bet he would probably play if this was a regular season game.

So happy to have Magic basketball back. I pray we get a stream. :pray:

the game isn't on the channel listings - at least not on my League Pass (in LA)...but that happened last year a couple times during preseason, the listing didn't appear until just before it started but the game was on

Heck, if Vuc is out, might as well start Frye and see if his improvement is for real.

So pumped that Magic basketball is back. Hopefully the game won't be blacked out. It shouldn't be since we're not televising it locally. Go Magic!!!

Not worried with Vooch being out. He can be ready for the regular season in limited time. It will give us time to see some of the other guys.

That's just setting him up for failure. So when he doesn't block shots and get a double double we can bash him?
What kind of improvement would you be expecting to see from at the center position? He's a stretch four. I'd say start Dedmon at the 5 and Frye at the four.

If that is indeed the starting lineup, it means we're all but guaranteed the second unit dream team of:

Looks like League Pass will be audio-only (radio broadcast) tonight for our game (as expected).

Hoping the jumbotron feed is up.

Thanks for posting, Adam.

I like Skiles' answers on analytics.

Too bad about the injuries. Still, I can't wait to see where Elf, Dipo, Harris, and Dedmon are after a summer of hard work.
