## Resource

The Magic are no longer the inevitable Eastern Conference up-and-comers—expectations are reset after postseason disappointment. Injuries and missed opportunities exposed gaps despite the team’s young core. Orlando must now prove itself all over again in a more competitive East, addressing depth, shooting, and health to reclaim contender status.
