I'm starting to think Hansen Yang is worth taking a risk on even in the first round. 7'1, awesome passer and ball handler for his size. Probably not good enough defensively to be a starter really so his median outcome is a backup big who gives you playmaking but there's like an outside chance he's like a 7'1 Sabonis type and that's worth taking a punt on at some point.

Tahaad Pettiford is one draft guy I just don't get. He's 6'1, 170, that's like Trae Young build (admittedly he has a 6'5 wingspan which is better than Young's). If Trae Young wasn't a totally elite pull up shooter, pick and roll playmaker and passer he'd be borderline unplayable in the NBA. Trae Young absolutely dominated college ball as a freshman. Tahaad Pettiford averaged 11.6 points and 3 assists on 56% TS. He might be really good. But it's such a razor thin margin for error and with small guards I feel like I need to see them dominate versus trying to project them to grow etc.

This kid...he is intriguing me MASSIVELY

Been doing a little draft prospect dive.. Nique Clifford ... I like him ALOT! At 16 and 25 depending what we do.. We can get some very good rotation players possible stars... you never know.
-
Seen a trade on twitter.. Wendell.. Jett.. 2027 1st and 2029 2nd We get Porzingis... To be honest he's absolutely perfect for us.. But can he stay healthy. I'd do this. KP is the ideal Center you put with P5..Franz and Co

I don’t think Cole has positive value in a trade other than his contract for salary matching. I don’t blame the coach for Cole that’s for sure. He is a good guy but is small and inefficient and it’s been proven in the playoffs. He’s had more than enough chances. I like your trade ideas though. Keep them coming they are great for discussion.
-
He has me interested.

Egor Demin, is considered the best passer in this class. He measured taller, 6' 9 1/2" at the Combine. Today he is projected to be drafted as high as # 6 I think we can kiss this option goodbye.
-
I would like to keep Black if possible, I think he’s still got a lot of upside and strikes me as a guy who would come back to haunt us later. I think he could be the focus of our bench mob and a sixth man in the next year or two.
-
I would include Black and KCP instead of Suggs. Black & KCP and two 1st for Garland

I don’t think I’d trade Suggs for Garland straight up… that hypothetical is gross

https://www.si.com/nba/magic/orlando-magic-should-pass-on-trade-for-211-million-declining-star-01jv8k7s4c4k I'm a hard "no" on this one.

https://clutchpoints.com/nba/orlando-magic/magic-trade-proposal-darius-garland-offseason-after-cavaliers-flameout Not sure I'd give up two 1sts along with Suggs, but I'd consider Suggs and one 1st. My fear with Suggs is his injury-proneness.
-
Garland disappears when it matters ... in saying that with P5...Franz.. Suggs n Co maybe its different for him.
-
Honestly, I'd be ecstatic about either deal. Garland gives us the exact kind of PG we need and is just entering his prime, while Giannis is a freak generational talent.
-
I wouldn’t break up our core to go after Giannis, but I love the Garland idea. He would really change our whole offense for the better.
-
I love the articles Soul! We’re in conversations and have the assets to go after the biggest fish this off-season. With the Tatum injury, the East is ripe for the picking and we have to act now

The Florida HC out here blowing up Weltman's spot. If someone trades above us for Clayton now we know why lol Either that or he just thinks saying the Magic doesn't anchor Clayton in a particular draft range since we have two picks.

I been watching highlights on Cedric Coward... If he is there at 16 I'm taking him.. He's the pick... for me. If we keeping it.

Maybe. I don’t agree on Cole though. Not too long ago, he was a possible 6th moty candidate. It’s not his fault that this team has no offensive identity. He’s not a great playmaker, but he can get buckets. He needs somebody to show him the way. He’s one of those players, who will thrive in the right situation. Learning from Kyrie would do him wonders, just like Oladipo learned so much from Westbrook. Reddick back in the day wouldn’t have had that great career if he stayed at Orlando. And again, it’s not his fault coach can’t define roles, create an offensive scheme and constantly throw darts on the rotation.
-
My plan A is still to trade for an established star. But if there is no deal to be made, i’m actually not too mad. This draft class is surprisingly and sneaky good! Looks like this draft will provide some elite role players and some surprise star players. I didn’t expect this class to be so deep actually.

"I know the Magic really like him, and they've got two picks in the first round, but you know, I think one of those teams that really values a winning player, a guy that has a really good attitude and has won at the highest level in college." -- Todd Golden, on Walter Clayton Jr https://t.co/9yUlTL7LRl He mention it around the 45 min mark.
