Relax CT, relax....you're going to give yourself a heart attack.

We'll see, we'll see how Jase game develops with the Magic. AI searches relevant data sources....and then generates feedback......it is not 100% perfect all the time, I know. But it is a tool, an option. Legacy or AI? It's your own choice and preference.

Jase a much better shooter /scorer than TJ seems to: Scoring vs. Playmaking: Richardson is considered more of a scorer than a traditional playmaker, whereas McConnell is known for his passing and floor leadership. Richardson’s primary skill is "scoring—not shooting, but scoring," while McConnell is more of a facilitator16. Shooting Ability: Richardson enters the NBA with a reputation as an efficient shooter, particularly on catch-and-shoot threes (over 40% in college), whereas McConnell’s shooting has always been a secondary part of his game56. NBA Readiness: Some analysts believe Richardson may need more time to adjust to the NBA, possibly spending significant time in the G League, while McConnell was able to contribute as a backup relatively quickly6.

So far, 3 in: Desmond, Jase and Noa and 4 out: KCP, Cole, Gary and Cory Seems that the wing position is getting a little bit crowded with Franz, Jett, Caleb, Tristan and Noa Is something cooking?

You got this right....congrats !!!!

.........right, Desmond Bane trade resulted in a net loss of 3 guards !!! In: Bane Out: KCP, Cole, Gary & Cory So it's kinda obvious that we get back one G with the 25th....we just shall see at about 10:30 PM EST

I can type over it......relax

My bad, not AI

Jase Richardson, ONLY 19 WHILE PLAYING HIS 1ST YEAR AT COLLEGE. TURNS 20 ON OCT 16 Elite shooter, especially off screens; excels at stepbacks and hesitation moves3. Not a true point guard but creates gravity with shooting and is willing to find open teammates3. Strong defensive fundamentals; rarely makes mistakes for a freshman3. Clutch performer in high-pressure situations, with leadership qualities emerging during his lone college season5. Recorded a 38-inch vertical leap at the combine, highlighting his athleticism despite his smaller stature5. His wingspan was reported as 6'6", giving him a significant reach advantage relative to his height7. Played one season at Michigan State (2024–25). Started as a reserve, then became a starter for the final 15 games. Averaged 16.1 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.7 assists, and 0.9 steals per game as a starter3. Shot over 40% from three-point range4. Helped lead Michigan State to a Big Ten championship and Elite Eight appearance45. Earned Third-Team All-Big Ten and Big Ten All-Freshman honors3. Declared for the 2025 NBA Draft after his freshman year

Yes, since 2009, numerous players have been compared to Stephen Curry, especially those who exhibit exceptional shooting range, off-the-dribble scoring, and guard skills. One recent example is Florida guard Walter Clayton Jr., whose game has drawn direct comparisons to Curry. Coaches and analysts have noted similarities in their shooting prowess, especially their ability to score off the dribble and shoot from deep range. Clayton Jr.'s physique and advanced shooting analytics have also contributed to these comparisons, though even he acknowledges the challenge of living up to Curry's transformative impact on the game3.

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/fwEeXsDHkGs?feature=share WATCH THE LINK Clayton Jr.’s standout attributes are his outside shooting, as he converted 38.6% of his 7.8 3-point attempts per contest as a senior, and his shot creation. However, he also possesses the ball-handling abilities to get to the rim and has enough athleticism to convert once inside. Clayton Jr. is also more than capable of playmaking for his teammates out of the pick-and-roll or in transition.

Few prospects in the 2025 NBA Draft have experienced a bigger rise in draft boards among experts than Yang, who continues to wow scouts with his impressive ability to make an impact on both sides of the ball. Yang has enough potential to be a starting-caliber center in the NBA in only a few years, though for that to happen he’ll need to add muscle to his frame and get used to the speed of the NBA games. The skill set and talent are all there, though he is far better on offense than on defense. His size and instincts compensate for most of his defensive limitations, but most of his upside comes on offense due to his ability to score and pass at all three levels. He excels in the post and finishing through traffic while also being outstanding in pick-and-roll situations either as a screener and finisher.

Orlando Magic Rumored To Draft Cole Anthony Replacement In Second Round In a recent mock draft, Bleacher Report predicted Orlando would select West Virginia point guard Javon Small while also comparing him to Anthony. "Scouts sound interested in Javon Small, whose production has drawn more attention to his shotmaking and playmaking," it wrote. "Tough shots off the dribble can hurt his efficiency, but an NBA team could see his creation, downhill game and confidence around the perimeter working for a bench-spark role." Small comes to the NBA with four years of collegiate experience, and his production increased each season. Last year Small averaged a career-high 18.6 points and 1.5 steals en route to an All-Big 12 First-Team selection. Small's two-way capabilities will pair nicely with coach Jamahl Mosleys defensive philosophy. At the NBA Draft combine, Small highlighted his do-it-all capabilities.

The Q is how the rating of our gang of 4 compares to some of the teams considered tears 1 or 2?

There is some potential in the 2nd round with these int'l players and some many kids balling for that matter. Magic have to up their game and try to find assets in the 2nd round starting with this one cause here is where they'll live. These 2nd rounders are not for this year, develop them to be ready in years 2 or 3.
