Earlier this month the Magic announced the Amway Center would be used as an early voting location.
“I saw fit that we use the Amway as a place, a voting station. I saw a couple of other teams were doing it and I thought it would be a grand idea for us to do it in Central Florida," Bamba said.
Converting the Amway Center and other facilities into polling locations was a condition agreed upon by the league and the players for them to continue in the NBA playoffs after going on a brief strike in protest of the shooting of Jacob Blake.
