Orlando Magic head coach Jamahl Moseley has dismissed recent rumors of tension between him and the team’s star player. The rumors, which surfaced last week, suggested a rift had developed between Moseley and the unnamed player over the team’s recent struggles. However, Moseley addressed the speculation in a press conference on Tuesday, setting the record straight.
“There’s absolutely no truth to those rumors,” Moseley stated firmly. “Our relationship is strong, and we’re both committed to the same goal—winning basketball games. We’re focused on building a culture of trust and hard work, and that’s exactly what we’re doing.”
Moseley, who has been praised for his player-centric coaching style, emphasized that maintaining open communication with all his players is a top priority. He noted that any disagreements or challenges that arise are handled internally and are part of the normal dynamics of a professional sports team.
“Every team goes through ups and downs, but we handle things together as a unit,” Moseley added. “The bond we have is solid, and we’re all on the same page moving forward.”
With this clarification, Moseley hopes to put the rumors to rest and keep the focus on the team’s progress this season.
