Magic Fire Head Coach Jamahl Mosley
According to ESPN, the Orlando Magic have officially dismissed head coach Jamahl Mosley, ending his five-season tenure with the franchise.
Mosley joined the Magic as head coach in 2021 and guided the team through a rebuilding phase. However, consecutive first-round playoff eliminations ultimately led management to make a change.
During his time in Orlando, the team developed several young core players, including Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner. Despite steady improvement in the regular season, persistent playoff struggles proved to be the decisive factor in Mosley departure.
The franchise is expected to search for a new head coach during the offseason as they prepare for a deeper playoff run next season.
