Magic's three-point stats: 10-for-35 (28.6%)

In the game against Detroit Pistons a few days ago, the Magic shot poorly from the three-point line and went 7-for-24. Despite their shooting struggles, they managed to eke out a two-point win, thanks to D.J. Augustin and Nikola Vucevic's efficient performances.

One thing that really affected the Orlando Magic's chances of walking away with the win in Charlotte was their poor three-point shooting. While the team has shooters who can drill three-pointers at high accuracy, they struggled to do it against the Hornets.

The sharpshooters Terrence Ross and Evan Fourier combined for only 4-for-11 from behind the arc and had a night to forget. The Florida State product, Jonathan Isaac shot 1-for-5 from the three-point line and finished with just 11 points.

The franchise's face, Aaron Gordon only connected on 2-of-6 three-pointers and none of them made any impact from long range.
