The Orlando Magic had their best campaign in over a decade in 2023/24. Unfortunately, the team couldn't push enough to make it past the first round of the 2024 NBA Playoffs when they lost to the Cleveland Cavs.

Fubo also allows you to stream up to 10 screens at one time. If you want NBA TV, you have several upgrade options ranging from $7.99 to $10.99 a month.

You’ll also have full access to Disney Plus and ESPN Plus, a huge bonus for loads of extra on-demand entertainment and live sports.

Those benefits aside, Hulu + Live TV isn’t the best way to stream Orlando’s games all season as it doesn’t include Bally Sports Florida or NBA TV. However, you can subscribe to Bally Sports Plus (in-market) or NBA League Pass (out-of-market) to get access to all the Magic’s regional broadcasts.
