## Resource

The Magic’s quiet, confident bet on their starting lineup defined this offseason. As Philip Rossman-Reich dissects the data, Orlando’s top five proved elite last year—but standing pat comes with risk. The episode explores whether internal improvement, bench tweaks, and health can really push the Magic into true contention this season.
