Magic Players 'Celebrate Each Other', Says Coach Jamahl Mosley

The Orlando Magic feels like less of team and more like a family so far this season, as all of its players are so happy whenever one of their teammates accomplishes something.

The Orlando Magic has surprised a lot of people this season with its great team play. This comes as a result of head coach Jamahl Mosley's dream to keep the same core group of players and have them grow together.

The Magic has been very quiet in the trade market and in free agency because of this, and so far this season, it looks like it is working out just how Mosley envisioned. He talked more about the comradery that his team has in a recent interview.

"These guys really just celebrate each other," Mosley said. "They love the fact that Paolo [Banchero] is going to be an All-Star the fact that he's playing at such a high level and carrying the team and finding ways to win. So it's a humble group already."

Instead of wishing that was them in Banchero's position, his teammates are happy for him and strive to make him better while also improving themselves. It is a great way to run a team, and it has the Magic currently in the playoff picture in the Eastern Conference.

The Magic will be back in action on Friday in the first game of a four-game road trip against the Miami Heat. Tipoff is set for 8 p.m. ET from the Kaseya Center.
