He Did Not Stop Playing
Indeed, the status of Magic did not stop basketball fans from voting for him on the All-Star game of 1992. And the NBA legend proved its worth by becoming the MVP in that match-up amid objections from other players over his taking part. Selection for the Olympic Games that summer also saw Magic selected — in what would turn out to be amongst the best decisions for Team USA.
The Dream Team
Fortunately, the Dream Team won the 1992 Olympics basketball tournament, winning six of their eight games. Moreover, the fans loved it and on several occasions gave the HIV-positive player standing ovations. Things seemed to be improving for Magic.
