“With Orlando as our hometown, Magic has always been a key strand of our DNA,” Orlando Magic CEO Alex Martins said in a statement. “This expanded agreement with Disney brings our story full circle and represents the coming together of two dynamic organizations that have become synonymous with Orlando.”

According to Darren Rovell, the Magic will have a new Disney-branded special seating and hospitality area and also sell annual passes to Walt Disney World for the first time.

The Timberwolves and the Magic become the 7th and 8th NBA teams to have jersey patch deals signed for the 2017–2018 season. The Sixers, Nets, Celtics, Kings, Cavs and Jazz are the other 6 teams to have locked down deals.
