Free agency and trades is where we look for upgrades at combo forward, combo big, and power center.
Internal options are
Power center: Goga
Combo big: Moritz
Combo forward: Bol, Isaac, Okeke
Who are some external options? Spacing and defensive versatility are key attributes imo.

Interesting article with quotes from other executives thinking what we could do. None of this is from our team which should go without saying

Markelle Fultz, PG, Orlando ($17,000,000 plus incentives; $2 million guaranteed): The Magic could bail on Fultz’s contract by waiving him before June 30, but it’s hard to see what they’d get out of it. The Magic project to have $22 million in cap room just by declining the three small player options noted above; it’s hard to imagine them needing more than that given their likely position in this summer’s market. Fultz isn’t quite worth $17 million given his shooting woes ($9.5 million BORD$ valuation), but he’s better than whatever the Magic could do with the room exception. Prediction: Not waived

That $$$ amount was EXACTLY what stood out to me. Front office view of Fultz and the fan base view are likely in opposite directionszaymon wrote:eyriq wrote:https://theathletic.com/4579410/2023/06/06/nba-free-agency-options-predictions?source=user-shared-articleMarkelle Fultz, PG, Orlando ($17,000,000 plus incentives; $2 million guaranteed): The Magic could bail on Fultz’s contract by waiving him before June 30, but it’s hard to see what they’d get out of it.

People want to give him 25M+ lol. I agree that he is not worth 17M and should be waived if we can sign someone better. I guess its not only my opinion.
