The1997–98 Orlando Magic season was the ninth season for theOrlando Magic in theNational Basketball Association.[1] During the off-season, the Magic hiredChuck Daly as their new head coach; Daly led theDetroit Pistons to two consecutive NBA championships between 1989 and 1990.[2][3][4] The team also acquired All-Star guardMark Price from theGolden State Warriors,[5][6][7] acquiredDerek Harper from theDallas Mavericks,[8][9][10] and signed free agentBo Outlaw.[11][12][13]

Under Daly, the Magic got off to a solid 16–7 start to the regular season; however, they struggled losing nine of their next ten games, asPenny Hardaway only played just 19 games due to a knee injury, averaging 16.4 points and 1.5 steals per game.[14][15][16] The team then lost seven straight games in January, asDarrell Armstrong was out for the remainder of the season after 48 games, due to a torn rotator cuff in his right shoulder.[17][18] The Magic also signed free agentVernon Maxwell in January, but released him to free agency after eleven games, as he later on signed with theCharlotte Hornets.[19][20]

At mid-season, the team tradedRony Seikaly to theUtah Jazz in exchange forGreg Foster andChris Morris;[21][22][23] however, the trade was voided due to Seikaly failing to report to the Jazz within the 48-hour deadline, because of a foot injury.[24][25][26] Instead, he was then traded along with second-year forwardBrian Evans to theNew Jersey Nets in exchange forDavid Benoit,Kevin Edwards andYinka Dare, who never played for the Magic and was released to free agency.[27][28][29] After the trade, the Magic signed free agent and former Slam Dunk championSpud Webb to a 10-day contract, as he appeared in four games for the team before being waived.[30][31] The Magic held a 23–25 record at the All-Star break,[32] and finished in fifth place in theAtlantic Division with a 41–41 record, missing theNBA playoffs for the first time since the1992–93 season.[33]

In Hardaway's absence,Nick Anderson stepped up averaging 15.3 points and 5.1 rebounds per game, whileHorace Grant averaged 12.1 points and 8.1 rebounds per game, andDerek Strong provided the team with 12.7 points, and 7.4 rebounds per game off the bench as the team's sixth man. In addition, Outlaw had a stellar season averaging 9.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 2.2 blocks per game, while Price contributed 9.5 points and 4.7 assists per game, Armstrong provided with 9.2 points and 4.9 assists per game, and Harper contributed 8.6 points and 3.5 assists per game. Meanwhile,Danny Schayes became the team's starting center after Seikaly was traded, as he averaged 5.5 points and 3.3 rebounds per game.[34]

During theNBA All-Star weekend atMadison Square Garden inNew York City, New York, and despite the knee injuries, Hardaway was selected for the1998 NBA All-Star Game, as a member of the Eastern Conference All-Star team; it was his fourth and final All-Star appearance.[35][36][37] Anderson finished tied in fourth place inMost Improved Player voting, while Outlaw finished tied in eighth place;[38][39] Outlaw also finished tied in fifth place inDefensive Player of the Year voting, while Grant finished tied in eleventh place, and Daly finished tied in ninth place inCoach of the Year voting.[39]

Following the season, Price retired after twelve seasons in the NBA,[40] while Harper signed as a free agent with theLos Angeles Lakers,[41][42] and Benoit and Edwards were both released to free agency.[43]
