It was time to move on. He couldnt even push rookie 2nd rounder for minutes. Now we wait what happens with Hampton. Good we have Kevon Harris and Admiral Schofield waiting in the wings. Good scouting by Weltman.
My money is on Banchero going number 1 !

Current Roster

G: Fultz, Anthony, Hampton
G: G. Harris, Suggs, Houstan
F: F. Wagner, Bol, Okeke
F: Banchero, Isaac
C: Carter, M. Wagner

K. Harris (two-way)
Schofield (two-way)

Things to keep an eye on...

Does Hampton get bought out?
Does Harris or Schofield get converted from their two-way contracts to NBA contracts?
Do the Magic look to fill the spots with current G-League players?

Well I for one have enjoyed (not the last season or so) T Ross on the Magic, he gave some unreal moments as the Human Torch and seemed like a thoroughly likeable person off the court. Hope he ends up in a good spot to give a contender some Buckets off the bench.

But absolutely the right decision all round.

I hope he goes to a team that's behind Chicago in the standings, like Toronto, Washington, Portland, or the Lakers.

Phoenix could also be a good landing spot.

Should've sold high when we could..... Even though I don't mean that to sound as blunt as it does.... Thanks T-Ross

I always liked TRoss the person. Good luck to him. I hope he lands somewhere he can contribute on a contender.

I hate to say it, but he should have been moved the minute Orlando received Gary Harris in the AG deal. Another example of this FO failing to sell high and squander value.

Ross was a good presence during his time here. He's a pro's pro. Was a good guy to have around a really young team these last few years. I'll be rooting for him at his next stop.

T-ross was huge in 2018-19 season. He really was the driving force to that playoff push. He just wasn't the guy to play the last couple season in a rebuild. I'm surprised he played here for as long as he did. 7 years is a long time now a days with one franchise.

The high-speed rail is opening any day now and will only take 3 hours from Orlando to Miami. He could just keep his place here and play for Miami.

Has it been 7 years? Wow didn't feel that long.

Denver/PHX/Dallas could use a guy like Ross as a FA.

I enjoyed having T Ross and recently his videos helped bring an insiders point of view of our team which will be missed. I always felt he should have broken out and became Tmac or Tmac lite since they're similar in size plus he could shoot and jump over most but it never happened? Oh well have fun T Ross and thanks for being entertaining.

Looks like it could be Dallas.
