    The Orlando Magic fired general manager Rob Hennigan on Thursday after a five-season tenure without a playoff appearance, team CEO Alex Martins announced.

    "The facts are we regressed this year and we made the decision that five years under this leadership team was enough to show improvement, which we have not,'' Martins said Thursday afternoon. "I believe we have provided all of the assets, the autonomy and the tools necessary over the past five years in order to build a successful program.''

    Hennigan, 35, was the NBA's youngest general manager. The team posted a 132-278 (.322) record under his guidance -- the second-worst in the NBA over the five seasons and the worst five-year stretch in team history.
