[drsd]

• Best Player: F-Wagner (he is two way and Banchero is just an offensive player)
• Most Overrated: G-Harris (his stats hide how bad he is)
• Most Underrated: Fultz (Fultz led to wins last year)
• Could Surprise: Suggs (maybe he develops to a SG)
• Takes a Leap: Banchero (could average 12 FTA per game this year)
• Prove-it Year: Fultz (must, must, must lead the team to the playoffs)
• Key Addition: Ingles (rookies are horrible and he will be a glue guy)

EDIT: "Key Addition" might not be know yet, as there really needs to be a trade.

• Best Player: Paolo (becomes a legit #1)
• Most Overrated: Moe W (I find his defense/outside shooting negates the good)
• Most Underrated: Suggs (will do all the little things people don't appreciate)
• Could Surprise: Isaac (if he stays healthy, that's a surprise)
• Takes a Leap: Paolo (if I think he becomes best player, it means he leaps Franz)
• Prove-it Year: Fultz (if he shoots threes off the dribble and at a higher rate, discussion on him changes)
• Key Addition: Black (but also voting for surprise trade at deadline)

Best player: paolo

Most overrated: caleb houstan
Got a promise to be drafted. But he is nothing special. Best skill is being standstill shooter. Not even elite at it.

Most underrated: suggs
Elite defender. Offensive improvement this year is overlooked

Could surprise: cole
Wildcard. Will surprise especially if he isn’t able to get extension.

Takes a leap: franz
Hoping he becomes more aggressive next year. He defers to his teammates. We need him to be more aggressive to show his is a apt to be a top offensive option. He is playing for the MAX extension next year too.

Prove it year: paolo
This year, he has to prove he can be THE man once team already have him on their scouting report.

Key addition: jett howard
Book it! Everyone expects him to be ****. Lol So underrated, can’t go anywhere but up.

• Best Player: Paolo…he’s got his feet under him now and pushes for All-Star status
• Most Overrated: Fultz…he’s out there, he’s not messing up, but he’s not really adding
• Most Underrated: Suggs…we focus on shortcomings, but when he’s in the game- you can feel the intensity. Effort on D is contagious.
• Could Surprise: Goga…he’s #2 now at C, if WCJ misses any time, we’ll get a real look. Big, physical, rim-protector?
• Takes a Leap: Suggs again…if his shooting ticks up again, the questions start to go away and he’s solid
• Prove-it Year: Cole…if his BBIQ & efficiency improve again, he could be QB1 and get paid to stay and start post-TD
• Key Addition: Ingles…he’s good for a 5% improvement (across the whole roster) in attitude, locker room, ball movement, BBIQ, humor

[tiderulz]

• Best Player: Franz, efficient 2 way player
• Most Overrated: Fultz
• Most Underrated: Cole (numbers show, he plays the PG spot pretty well right now)
• Could Surprise: Jett (i know i didnt like the pick, but he has a chance to show his shooting value)
• Takes a Leap: Paolo (if he can improve defense and 3 pt shooting could make him our #1)
• Prove-it Year: Suggs (has to show his offense can improve), close 2nd ISaac (though i dont believe he will ever be healthy again)
• Key Addition: Ingles (improve bench offense/shooting and be the adult voice in the locker room)

Let's play this

• Best Player: Franz Wagner
• Most Overrated: Fultz
• Most Underrated: Cole Anthony
• Could Surprise: Black
• Takes a Leap: hopefully Suggs
• Prove-it Year: Suggs
• Key Addition: who? Ingles?

• Key Addition: Ingles (improve bench offense/shooting and be the adult voice in the locker room)

This has got to be our last try with Isaac…and he deserves it, imo, he’s that impactful, even in a limited deployment. But…there comes a time to move on. Hopefully, he’s healthy, but Jan 10 is the fully-guaranteed date…I’d say that’s THE day for him & ORL

i cant say "he deserves it". i just think its time to move on because he wont be healthy

• Best Player: Franz Wagner- doesnt need any comment
• Most Overrated: Markelle Fultz- same
• Most Underrated: Wendell Carter- often doesnt mentioned as core while being arguably our best player last season
• Could Surprise: Bitadze- he played well with us, and this year we havent signed replacement yet
• Takes a Leap: Banchero- he needs to, wasnt that good last year
• Prove-it Year: Suggs- roster space getting tight, will have to fight for minutes
• Key Addition: Black- we drafted him despite his lack of shooting and despite having so many guards. Weltmans saw something special

[MagicHolland]

Lol @ most overrated being 90% Fultz how can you be called most overrated by pretty much everyone guess he’s not that overrated after all.

Look I’m not going to sit here and try to convince everyone how Fultz is the second coming of Jesus, he definitely has his shortcomings. But I’m going to feel good if Fultz shows out upcoming season. For one because we as a team would benefit greatly from that but also because I’d feel vindicated in my thrust in Fultz as a player and a teammate.

That being said, I might be very wrong and this might come back to haunt me. I don’t care

Carry on with the list, I don’t want to make this one about Fultz too..!

[MagicHolland]

• Best Player: Franz Wagner
• Most Overrated: hardest one.. Bol? Also I expect Goga to disappear
• Most Underrated: Cole Anthony, guilty myself. The problem is that I expect him to want a role that we won’t give him. As a 6th man he’s Great!
• Could Surprise: Jett, as shooting is a big need. If he provides that he could get a bigger role than you’d expect.
• Takes a Leap: Suggs, time to push Harris out of the starting lineup.
• Prove-it Year: Fultz, so many doubters. He has to be the one to prove he can carry this team as a leader.
• Key Addition: does JI count?

[Rainwater]

I'm shocked at how many people are saying that Franz is going to be the best player. I would think Paolo would be the foregone conclusion with all the hype he is getting not only from Orlando fans but the national media.
