Before the Orlando Magic started their season at home Wednesday night against the Heat, the team honored the 49 victims of the nightclub shooting that occurred in June, just a few miles away from the Amway Center, by raising a banner that was inscribed with the name of each victim. Survivors of the tragedy were also invited to the game, and Magic players warmed up wearing special "Orlando United" gear.
