I guess the larger question is can Okeke grow into a guy who takes Fournier's spot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Odin 137 Report post Posted June 21, 2019 https://www.theringer.com/nba-draft/2019/6/20/18693649/2019-nba-draft-grades-zion-williamson 16. Orlando Magic: Chuma Okeke, F, Auburn Okeke, who could miss his entire rookie season after tearing his ACL in the NCAA tournament, is an interesting value pick for the Magic. He has a great combination of size (6-foot-8, 230 pounds), athleticism, and 3-point shooting ability, as well as one of the highest basketball IQs in this draft. Orlando has needed 3-point shooting for years. Okeke, who shot 38.7 percent from 3 on 3.7 attempts per game this season, can help fill that role—whenever he returns from injury. Grade: B Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bauncey Chillups 288 Report post Posted June 21, 2019 Hmm, don't dislike the pick but was hoping he'd be able to play the 2, seems like Okeke's game and Gordon's overlap quite a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not that way If he's good we'd just play a 3 forward rotation with Isaac and Gordon shifting to Isaac and Okeke then Gordon and Okeke. We could go small and play Isaac Gordon Okeke at the 3-4-5.

For whatever reason Isaac at the 5 wasn't something that even crossed my mind even though it is something I see in his future once he bulks up a bit. Should be fun to see how everything works out with a team full of the same guy physically. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Okeke's rookie contract exceeds the length of Gordon's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
