The 2009–10 Orlando Magic season was the 21st season of the Orlando Magic in the National Basketball Association (NBA).

As a result of previous trades made by the Orlando Magic, they did not have any draft choices in this year's draft. Ironically, the NBA still had Adidas make a Draft Cap, which would have been given to a potential draft choice. The hat was still available for public purchase on the NBA's official webstore.

Though he was not expected to get much playing time, Adonal Foyle underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee on October 21, a little more than a week before the start of the season. His return depends on how well his knee recovers with treatment.

Vince Carter was injured on October 30 during the second game of the season, suffering a sprained left ankle. The injury was reported as not too serious, but caused Carter to miss four of the Magic's next five games.

Ryan Anderson injured his ankle in the game against Detroit on November 3. He missed the following 4 games before returning to play against the Bobcats.

Jameer Nelson suffered a torn meniscus in his left knee during the 4th quarter of a game on November 16. The next day it was revealed that arthroscopic surgery would be required to repair the injury. He was expected to be out 4–6 weeks, but a report later in the week stated his teammates expected him to be gone for only 3 weeks. Ultimately, Nelson would return to action on December 21, five weeks to the day of his injury.

The Magic are affiliated with the Reno Bighorns of the D-League. They replace the Bakersfield Jam for the 2009–10 season.
