The Week Ahead: Keeping the Skyhawks Grounded

By Osceola Magic Staff /January 12, 2026

Weekly Schedule:  

Date: Monday, January 12

Opponent: College Park Skyhawks

Venue: Gateway Center Arena, College Park, GA

Times: 7 p.m. ET

Where to Watch: 
The Story:  
  • After dropping their opening game at the Winter Showcase and starting the regular season 0-1, the Magic have won seven of their last eight game, and three of four to start 2026. Osceola is fourth in the G League during the regular season with a plus-7 point differential.
  • Will take on the College Park Skyhawks on Monday night at Gateway Center Arena. The two teams have played to an even 7-7 record, but Osceola is only 3-4 on the road. However, the Magic have won four of the last five matchups, including two on the road in the 2023-24 season.
  • The Magic's recent stretch of success is largely thanks to their efforts on the defensive end. The team is seventh in the league in defensive rating at 108.2 and second with 12.9 steals per game. In their last game against the Birmingham Squadron, Osceola forced a franchise-high in steals (23) and opponent turnovers (36). The Magic gave up only nine points in the opening quarter, the lowest scoring quarter by an opponent in franchise history.
