ORLANDO — The Orlando Magic's four-game preseason schedule, announced by the team on Wednesday, includes Victor Wembanyama and Joel Embiid.

The Magic begin their preseason on the road against the New Orleans Pelicans on Oct. 7 at 1:30 p.m. ET. The Pelicans also will come to Orlando on Oct. 11. The Magic won both regular-season matchups against New Orleans in 2023-24.

Orlando's second preseason game will be a matchup of recent NBA rookies of the year — Paolo Banchero (2022) and Wembanyama (2024).

The Magic close out their preseason against the Philadelphia 76ers on Oct. 18 at home at 7 p.m. ET in a matchup of Eastern Conference playoff teams. The 76ers swept Orlando in the 2023-24 regular season.
