    • The Story:  
  • The Osceola Magic welcome the Maine Celtics to Osceola Heritage Park for a two-game series starting Sunday, March 8. The two teams last played each other during the 2025 Eastern Conference Finals, with the Magic coming out on top 135-122 to advance to the NBA G League Finals. Both teams bring in very different rosters than last season, however. The Celtics are fighting to stay in the playoff race, currently sitting in 11th place and 1.5 games behind the eighth spot.
  • The Wisconsin Herd visit OHP for the first and only time this season on March 11, catching the Magic on the second night of a back-to-back. Osceola is 4-0 in such matchups and have faired well against the Herd at home, going 5-3 since the 2017-2018 season.
  • The Magic hit the road for a quick visit to the current Eastern Conference leaders, the Greensboro Swarm. The two teams are separated by just half a game for home court advantage throughout the Eastern Conference playoffs. Osceola and Greensboro played in an overtime thriller in January, with the Swarm stealing a win at home. This game will have huge playoff implications, with the first tiebreaker scenario going to head-to-head matchups with the Swarm currently having the advantage over Osceola.
