The very last thing the Magic would want is another draft pick. And Carter is on a very good contact for Orlando.
So flip it around: Orlando's 18, Houstan-or-Howard, and the Denver 2025 FRP for Kennard. Orlando is trading for depth, not assets.

That's my point. Unless Memphis' pick is in the range to draft Clingan, I wouldn't do it. 1 year of Kennard at $15m and the rights to Clingan.drsd wrote:basketballRob wrote:Kennard will likely be an FA, and we could sign him for a low contract.

Kennard or another 10 marginal starter/ quality bench SGs are available on the FA market. I cannot see Orlando trading for such a player given the wide-open FA market.

Banchero's agent. Does this mean anything?
How far would the Magic go here in a trade?
Suggs, Black, Carter, the 2024 FRP, the better of the Magic or Denver FRP, the Orl/Wiz/Suns FRP once it becomes something Memphis wants.
I really don't think there is an offer the Magic would refuse, so long as F-Wagner and Banchero was not included.
Mike Miller stays here in Memphis and lol no Grizz not trading Ja. But how are you guys feeling about a Kennard 25 1st for Wendell Carter Jr.
Carter has a lower salary and would put the Grizzlies under the tax threshold, and if we could draft Clingan, I'd do it. He won 2 championships in 2 years.

I said 25 1st not our first this year. The 24 1st is a lottery top ten pick, ain’t no way we doing that for WCJ.

I'm leaning much more towards a big trade, but...interesting if guys like Collier, McCain, Shannon, Carter are on the table.

To me it's either a swing or a big.... I think the front office replaces one or both of Fultz and Harris with a established guard.... Probably Malik Monk next to Suggs, normally I would rather have a more traditional point guard but with the way we play we don't really need one... We just need a guard with solid playmaking skillstiderulz wrote:KillMonger wrote:I'd be surprised if we take another guardSkybox wrote:Tankathon has some really interesting players mocked around our general area.

I'd like a combo forward. da Silva isnt a bad option.

If the Magic keeps this pick, drafting an upperclassman of need makes and enormous amount sense. Either player looks to be a multi-year backup for Orlando. I think there is clear value in either of these players for Orlando.
Question: do you think da Silva can develop to replace Ingles in time? Or is he more of a set-PF?
