What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Cody Taylor @CodyTaylorNBA
Robin Lopez checked in and blocked Wendell Carter Jr. and immediately smiled over at the Magic bench. Carter laughed it off, too. – 7:21 PM
Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA
Franz being able to do as much as he can off the bounce completely changes things for the Magic. Makes building out everything else that much easier when you have a wing who can score, handle and pass. It’ll be messy at times, but that’s what the development years are for. – 7:21 PM
Evan Dunlap @BQRMagic
David Steele: “Not sure how that was a foul on Wendell Carter Jr.”
Jeff Turner: “Hit him in the elbow with his face?”
Steele: “I hate when that happens.” – 7:19 PM
Khobi Price @khobi_price
Paolo Banchero gets called for his second foul less than 2 minutes into the game.
Jamahl Mosley’s keeping him in. – 7:16 PM
Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA
No Garland or Mitchell tonight, so it’s great to see Mobley looking for his shot early. Man, Cleveland got a good one in him. He’s gonna end up being great. – 7:15 PM

The Cavaliers have used big lineups in the past like the Magic will tonight. J.B. Bickerstaff jokingly told @Khobi Price that Jamahl Mosley stole the idea from them 😂 – 5:34 PM

Orlando has had three rebuilds in a decade—but @Bill Simmons, @Ryen Russillo, and @HousefromDC all agree the Magic are a lock to bet the over. pic.twitter.com/WzMnj9cbTh – 2:03 PM
