QUOTABLE 

Magic guard Desmond Bane on the team's biggest improvement: "In my opinion, it’s been our maturity. Ever since the postseason started, all the other stuff has gone out the window. Winning has been everybody's focus. Whoever is asked to step on the court is bringing their all, regardless of if they make or miss shots. I'm very happy with the way we're playing and the way our locker room is, but obviously we're not finished."
