Would not be shocked if we pick him at 8. You are right (I agree), there are some vibes that the FO wants to bring this 18 year old kid to Orlando. At 18, he was the MVP in the Turkey League, 3rd best league in the world. Can play PF and C. He is a machine....high motor player !!! Could happen with pick # 8 and or trading for example a T Ross (will miss him) to get another pick. There are some vibes also that Ziaire is in the FO radar.

That is what wins in sports these days! Playing it safe leads to your ceiling being a habitual 8th seed or play in tournament! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope this draft goes well and we are bold to bring in a lot more talent. I can't remember a time recently when I have been more excited about a Magic season! Not counting who we bring in I am excited to watch the growth of Chuma, Hampton especially, Anthony, and eventually when Isaac and Fultz come back! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But his spot is safe because my most annoying player in Magic history is...... wait for it........Pat Garrity! I would make it a toss up between Hezonja and Payton with Bamba still in the running. We probably should start a thread on this :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How good he will be idk, but it was easy to see he was better than the rest of the players on the team Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
