With the club essentially starting over, Orlando (Magic) was patient with (Head Coach Jacque) Vaughn while the Magic went 43-121 over his first two seasons. But as the club has improved its roster this season, the results have gotten only slightly better, and it appears that Vaughn’s days are numbered.

It is likely the Magic will promote one of their assistant coaches to interim head coach, but several league executives have speculated that former Magic player Scott Skiles could be a front-runner for the job. Skiles played five of his 10 NBA seasons with the Magic, enjoying the best years of his career there.
