The 2003-04 Orlando Magic season was highlighted by the exceptional individual performance of Tracy McGrady, who secured his second consecutive NBA scoring title by averaging 28.0 points per game and earning a spot on the All-NBA Second Team. Despite a challenging year marked by injuries to key players like Grant Hill and Pat Garrity, the team showed resilience under new head coach Johnny Davis and provided fans with several thrilling moments, including a season-opening win over the New York Knicks. The season ultimately served as a vital turning point for the franchise, as their league-worst 21-61 record allowed them to secure the number one overall pick in the following draft, which they used to select future cornerstone Dwight Howard.
