I don't see any players on the market that move the needle. Ayton isn't going anywhere and anyone who even thinks it's a possibility is absurd.
Beal? Boy oh boy could we use a guy that can score but I'm not sure what that would look like. It'd be a sign and trade 100% because he's not going to leave the money Washington can give him. So who and what would we give up? It's definitely an interesting thought. Problem I see is I think the rest of the Magic are still too young and inexperienced to have Beal take us to the next level.

Unfortunately I think we sign bamba to his qualifying offer at 10 mil but it's going to be only a 2 or 3 year deal and only the first year guaranteed. Too many questions about the future of this roster. Which guards we stick with? Which wings we stick with? Is WCJ the future center or is he going to be that backup 4 and 5?

Unless something crazy happens with the draft I see free agency being very boring in Orlando this coming off season. I doubt we sign Gary Harris. We probably sign bamba and bol bol. If nobody picks up MCW and we bring him back I'd be ok with that.

Return to Orlando Magic
