Orlando isn't sure what it got here. In Taylor, they know they drafted the Southern Conference Player of the Year and an extraordinary athlete. But, the team believes, his NBA ceiling could be much higher. Johnny, after all, may not yet have reached physical maturity. Between his frosh and junior years in HS, he grew from 5-9 to 6-6, and has added a couple of inches and 40 pounds since.
The Magic began play in the NBA in 1989-90, but many people will point to the 1992 NBA Draft as the team's jumping-off point. The addition of superstar center Shaquille O'Neal with the first overall pick brought the franchise instant respectability and delivered the club to a new level of competitiveness. DID YOU KNOW? On the strength of its best start ever (8-3), the Magic ended the season's opening month in first place in the Atlantic Division for the first time ever. With Matt Guokas at the helm since 1989, the Magic are the only NBA team that has never made a coaching change. SCORECARD. Guokas earned his 200th career win December 19, 1992, as Orlando beat the Hawks 125-84 for the largest margin of victory in franchise history.
