Pregame hype video on Friday’s includes the Rudy T “Heart of a Champion” celebration. The long-time Magic fans in the building should not consider it anything personal, it’s a Friday Flashback thing. – 8:08 PM

When the Rockets sent Josh Christopher to the G League they wanted him to focus on running an offense, so I asked Stephen Silas if he saw progress from him in that aspect of his game on Wednesday night: “He got us organized at times, he was aggressive for sure..” pic.twitter.com/ivjBqiIB0W – 6:45 PM
