  • The 1989–90 NBA season was the innagural season for the Orlando Magic in the National Basketball Association. Several years after local developer and banker Jim Hewitt began promoting the idea of an NBA franchise in Florida, he was awarded the "Orlando Magic". The Magic, along with the Minnesota Timberwolves, joined the NBA as expansion teams in 1989. Hewitt's first move was to hire Philadelphia 76ers General Manager Pat Williams. Together, the two convinced the NBA to give Orlando a franchise after local fans made $100 deposits on season-ticket reservations. The Magic revealed a new primary logo, which showed a silver star as the letter "A" in the team name "Magic", along with a blue basketball with silver shooting stars. The team also added new pinstripe uniforms, adding blue, black and silver to their color scheme. On November 4, a sold out crowd watched the Magic lose 111–106 to the New Jersey Nets in the first ever game at the Orlando Arena. On November 6, the franchise experienced its first victory as the Magic stunned the New York Knicks 118–110. The Magic got off to a surprising start, posting a 7–7 record in November. On February 14, 1990, before a game against the Chicago Bulls, Michael Jordan's number 23 jersey was stolen from the Bulls' locker room at this arena. Jordan had to wear a number 12 jersey, and scored 49 points as the Magic won in overtime, 135–129. However, the team struggled through long losing streaks throughout their inaugural season, including a 15-game losing streak near the end of the season. The Magic finished last place in the Central Division with a record of 18 wins and 64 losses. Terry Catledge led the Magic in scoring with 19.4 points per game. Following the season, Reggie Theus was traded to the New Jersey Nets. The team's primary logo remained in use until 2000, while the uniforms lasted until 1998. The black pinstripe road jerseys would be used as the team's primary road uniforms until 1994, where they added blue pinstripe uniforms, and the black pinstripe jerseys became their alternate. (en)
