Orlando Magic head coach Jamahl Mosley has surpassed former Magic coach of the year Doc Rivers for the third-most wins in franchise history.

Why it matters

Mosley's record-breaking achievement is a testament to his ability to build a winning culture in Orlando despite the team's rebuilding situation. As the Magic look to take the next step and become a contender, Mosley's experience and leadership will be crucial in guiding the team's continued development.
