Orlando Magic hire Steve Clifford as head coach

Steve Clifford was there the last time the Orlando Magic were a playoff contender.

He's being asked to make them one again.

Clifford was announced Wednesday as the new coach of the Magic, a team that has missed the playoffs in each of the last six years. Clifford - who spent the last five seasons as coach of the Charlotte Hornets - was an assistant coach on Stan Van Gundy's Magic staff for five years, including during the team's most recent playoff run in 2012.
