Desmond Bane is extremely good. And they kept Suggs *and* Black.

I love Bane, great pickup. 4 unprotected firsts is probably an overpay, but he’s a big upgrade to the starting 5.

We might have 4 starters averaging 5+ assists next season

...but still no Point Guard

Orlando is sending to Memphis:
No. 16 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft
Phoenix's first-round pick in 2026
Magic 2028 unprotected first-rounder
Orlando's 2030 unprotected first, sources said.

Pick swap is lightly protected in 2029.

So we still have #25

I would have offered that for Murphy so bane is not too bad

Saved value on players, but added so much value on picks...do we have any left in the next draft?

I don't mind people disliking the trade (it's A LOT) but people are acting like Bane is trash now is funny

That's a lot of picks! Hopefully it pans out and they're all low!
