The Orlando Magic may not have a pick in the 2009 NBA Draft, but that shouldn't stop you from being involved in all of the draft-day festivities. Play the role of General Manager and participate in the Official 2009 OrlandoMagic.com Fan Draft on Wednesday at 1 p.m. ET. The first 30 people to sign up via this thread will each be assigned a team and a pick. List your team (and if they have multiple selections, pick preference) below and a list will later be provided with the final assignments. The draft will be held promptly at 1 p.m. ET on Wednesday, so only sign up if you can make it at that time. Even if your not initially assigned a team, come by anyway to give commentary.
