The Orlando Magic will dedicate the opening night of the upcoming season on Oct. 26 against the Miami Heat to the victims of the Orlando night club shooting on June 12.

The team will show a video highlighting the city's unity before holding a moment of silence. First responders from the night of the attacks will be honored as “hometown heroes.”

The Heat will invite survivors, family members and Pulse nightclub employees to the game.

A No. 29 banner will be raised to remember the 49 victims who lost their life on that night.
