Crazy to think we were relying on Chasson Randle as our lead ball handler a few months ago.

I didn’t think we would actually get Suggs, but this is a huge break for this team. We have someone with legitimate star potential to build around. I imagine trades to move out Ross and/or Harris are on the horizon.

Yeeessss!!! He was always my number 1 until Cade morphed into clucth-MJ.

I had him.higher than Green due to.his playmaking and ball handling.

wtf was Masai thinking?

Thank you Clippers for throwing that last game against OKC.

So this is what winning feels like?

What an absolute steal. I haven’t felt this good about a player and the team in a long time.

Welcome Suggs! Can’t wait to see the great things he brings.

Man, I just watched the interviews of Suggs and Wagner and I like the way Suggs talks.

Congratulations Magic fans. Coming from the Raptors board, many see this has a huge win for the Magic and an awful misjudge on the Raptors. You paid your dues and your time is now with Suggs

I'm on cloud 9, && think I may still be dreaming. Not even Weltman trading another 2nd rounder cant disrupt the state of bliss I'm in either. We finally caught a break.

I was warming up to Barnes and think he will be a defensive beast but the Magic have drafted a lot of guys with his playstyle which is why we soured on him more than we should've. Thanks though! I hope it works out for both teams.

I’m genuinely happy that this board (an overused generalization, I know) didn’t come to the impromptu consensus that this was a 3 player draft the moment we drafted Suggs. Genuinely surprised and happy.

All kidding aside, I can’t remember the last time I was this happy with an Orlando Magic draft (I wanted Okafor, hahaha).

His passion reminds me of Cole. Im excited to see what kind of a back court they can become. Wagner and Isaac can be perfect forwards next to them.

Yes, sometimes you win a trade (up) by not making one at all. I'm sure the Magic called a bluff or two here, maybe even won on one of their own.

Jackpot!

Now let's get a new jersey design and start this new era right.
