The Orlando Magic are riding high following what appears to be a significant playoff victory, celebrating their triumph with a playful social media post directed at former Magic star Rashard Lewis.
In a recent Instagram post, the Magic’s official account shared a celebratory video with the caption “PLAY MY MUSIC RASHARD” – seemingly a reference to post-game victory music and a nod to the team’s history with Lewis, who was a key player for Orlando from 2007 to 2010.
The post comes amid what appears to be a successful playoff run for the Magic, who have been sharing their excitement through a series of victory celebrations on social media.
Magic Winning Momentum
Just prior to this post, the team shared several other celebratory updates highlighting their recent success. One post proclaimed “WAGIC WIN ✨” (a playful spelling of Magic Win), while another highlighted star player Franz Wagner’s clutch performance with the caption “FRANZ WAGNER FOR THE LEAD. 32 POINTS FOR FRANZ.”
The team’s social feed has been buzzing with excitement, featuring posts with captions like “PLAY THE SONG” and various game highlights showcasing their key players making crucial plays. Paolo Banchero, the team’s young star, was also featured working the baseline to extend the Magic’s lead in a game broadcast on ESPN.
Playoff Atmosphere In Orlando
The energy surrounding the team suggests they’re in the midst of a playoff series, with one post specifically mentioning “GAME THREE” – indicating they’re competing in a postseason series. The team has been documenting their playoff journey with posts showing players “clocking in for game three” and pre-game preparations.
The reference to Rashard Lewis is particularly meaningful for longtime Magic fans. Lewis was a significant piece of the Magic’s last deep playoff run, when he helped lead the team alongside Dwight Howard to the 2009 NBA Finals. During his time with Orlando, Lewis was known for his three-point shooting prowess and was a key component of the team’s offense.
Community Involvement
Beyond their on-court success, the Magic have maintained their community presence. A recent post highlighted how the team “Brought the Magic to a new kind of court and rallied some Orlando legends for a good cause 🍊” – showcasing their continued involvement in the Orlando community even during the intensity of playoff competition.
The Orlando Magic, established in 1989, have been building a new era of success with young talents like Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner leading the charge. After years of rebuilding, the team appears to be finding playoff success that harkens back to their previous eras of contention.
This playful call to “PLAY MY MUSIC RASHARD” represents both the team’s current momentum and a nod to their storied history, connecting their present success with memories of their 2009 NBA Finals run when Lewis was a key contributor.
For Magic fans, these social media celebrations provide a window into the team’s chemistry and excitement as they navigate what appears to be a promising playoff appearance – something the franchise has been building toward through recent seasons of development and growth.
The post exemplifies how NBA teams often blend their current success with historical references, creating continuity between different eras of the franchise while celebrating present achievements.
