The Orlando Magic are expected to name San Antonio Spurs assistant Sean Sweeney as their next head coach. He will replace Jamahl Mosley, who was dismissed after the team's first-round playoff exit.

The move comes after the Magic lost to the Detroit Pistons in the first round of the 2026 NBA Playoffs. Orlando had led the series 3-1 before falling short. Sweeney has worked previously with the Nets, Bucks and Mavericks and served as associate head coach with the Spurs this season.
