Cole Anthony and Chuma Okeke are back tonight.

Today is also the final day of Hassani Gravett and Admiral Schofield's second 10-day hardships contracts and they will not be signing new ones unless more guys go out with COVID.

Frazier and Gillespie still have another 5 days apiece left on theirs.

So nice to have Cole Anthony and Chuma Okeke back.

Keep them coming (Markelle Fultz PLEASE) and ...... Let's Go Magic!

Wow how nice to see the proper starting 5 out there, and some good basketball to go with it! Ball moving well

Franz had a steal and then an assist to Cole that's not on the official scoreboard yet.

Wagner is nice man.

[thelead]

Franz' dribble-drive game is elite

[Xatticus]

Gillespie takes some awful angles.

[basketballRob]

They finally added Franz assist but not the steal.

Gary Harris playing well once again

[Xatticus]

We've attacked the rim and Embiid has been a non-factor.

[Rick Rolled]

Seth Curry kills us every single time. He definitely seems to have the Magic circled as a revenge game.

[MagicFan101]

RJ Hampton really is an impressive physical athlete. I wonder if he has ever thought about learning to play basketball?

[ChosenSavior]

Solid 1st quarter. We are actually playing with pace, space and with the pass for once.

Cole was spreading the ball around. He had one possession where he rejected a screen to take a dumb shot, but that was it. It also helps to have Frazier in the second unit. Hampton is not a PG.

Love to see it. Hard to watch a guy decline so rapidly right as he enters his prime. He looks like his old self on offense now.

[ChosenSavior]

Well damn Cole lol

[Knightro]

Cole has his warts, but his ball handling was just desperately lacking these last several games.

Cole has his warts, but his ball handling was just desperately lacking these last several games.

His talent is undeniable. He should have dropped it off on that last drive but maybe one day he'll get there. If he does, then I'll somewhat ignore his defense
