## Resource

The Orlando Magic were once the NBA’s rising darlings, but after an injury-plagued, disappointing season, their bright future feels in doubt. Philip Rossman-Reich explores the doubt surrounding Paolo Banchero, questions about core fit, and looming roster decisions, but argues hope remains—improvement and faith in youth could yet restore Orlando’s upward momentum.
