What will Orlando do tonight?

Several basic options.

1) draft for another team and trade the draft rights
2) take an upside BPA (freshman or Eurostar who has highest ceiling)
3) take a right-now BPA (college upper classman or >21 year old rookie asset who can contribute this season)
4) draft for need (fill out the depth chart)

Final thoughts in the poll on these options.

Best upside pick available who will likely start the season in Osceola. I expect our rotation to be made up of players with at least two years of experience.

I think they draft for another team and Trade the pick in a package involving Goga to go after some proven bench scoring.

Or

Or just pick Jase…

I think you pick longterm upside BPA. Fleming if he’s there.

If you look at Houston, they drafted Eason with #17 and now he’s a stud that can be part of a package that nets a star. He helps in the now and the future. He was an upside pick and it’s paying off.

My prediction is that we will make the pick and trade for a veteran backup PG.

I think they go BPA but I can also see them trading down into the early 2nd round too.

Trade pick and salary for future picks. We're not going to win the title this year and we're locked in with the current construction. Getting off of WCJ salary next year is the priority. We play better without him than we do with him.

My Prediction: I think Magic take BPA at #25 but could also see them trading down into the 2nd round or making a Trade involving current players.

Well: Richardson fits both the upside BPA and the draft for need box. So the #2 and #4 answers in the poll are co-winners.
