The 2000–01 NBA season was the 12th season for the Orlando Magic in the National Basketball Association.[1] In the 2000 NBA draft, the Magic selected Mike Miller from the University of Florida with the fifth overall pick, selected Keyon Dooling from the University of Missouri with the tenth pick, and selected Courtney Alexander out of Fresno State with the thirteenth pick. However, the team traded Dooling to the Los Angeles Clippers, and dealt Alexander to the Dallas Mavericks.[2] During the off-season, the Magic acquired Tracy McGrady from the Toronto Raptors,[3] and acquired All-Star forward Grant Hill from the Detroit Pistons.[4] The Magic had nearly signed then-free agent All-Star forward Tim Duncan, whom led the San Antonio Spurs to their first championship title the year before. However, Duncan would re-sign with the Spurs.[5] Additionally, the Magic also signed free agents Troy Hudson and Dee Brown, and acquired Andrew DeClercq from the Cleveland Cavaliers.
However, Hill re-injured his left ankle from the previous season after playing just four games and was out for the remainder of the season, as the Magic struggled losing 11 of their first 16 games in November.[6] Meanwhile, Brown only appeared in just seven games due to a left quadricep tendon. Despite losing both Hill and Brown, the Magic posted a nine-game winning streak between January and February, and returned to the playoffs after a one-year absence, finishing fourth in the Atlantic Division with a 43–39 record.[7]
McGrady averaged 26.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.5 blocks per game, and was named Most Improved Player of the Year. He was also named to the All-NBA Second Team, finished in sixth place in Most Valuable Player voting,[8] and was selected for the 2001 NBA All-Star Game, which was his first All-Star appearance. Hill was also selected for the All-Star Game, but did not play due to his ankle injury,[9] as he averaged 13.8 points and 6.3 rebounds and assists per game each during his short 4-game stint. In addition, Darrell Armstrong provided the team with 15.9 points, 7.0 assists and 1.8 steals per game, while Miller contributed 11.9 points per game and was named Rookie of the Year, and selected to the NBA All-Rookie First Team.[10] However, in the playoffs, the Magic lost in four games in the Eastern Conference First Round to the Milwaukee Bucks.[11] Following the season, John Amaechi signed as a free agent with the Utah Jazz.[12]
For the season, the Magic changed their primary logo,[13] and slightly changed their uniforms, adding their new alternate logo on the right leg of their shorts. The primary logo remained in use until 2010.

Roster Notes[]
- Small forward Grant Hill played 4 games (his last game being on December 12, 2000), but missed the rest of the season and the playoffs due to having season-ending surgery on his left ankle, which involved removing a metal plate and five screws from the inside portion of Hill's ankle, and replacing the plate with a bone graft from his pelvis, then inserting new screws.[6]
