Magic veteran forward Pat Garrity, a free agent, said he'd be "ammenable" to returning, but was told by the club that if he were offered a contract, it wouldn't be until later this summer.
"When they fill out the roster," cracked Garrity.
Garrity, the longest-tenured Magic player (1999-2000), also said he is exploring his options around the league. He turns 32 next month.
Known as an outstanding shooter, he has not been able to carve any significant playing time in Orlando the last several seasons and also could retire.
But for now, Garrity is continuing his work as an NBA ambassador. He was expecting to leave for India late Monday to join the league's Basketball Without Borders, an annual summer youth camp conducted by NBA players and officials. Garrity said he also will participate in the camp in Thailand.
"I've got all my vaccine shots," he said.
Pat will shows his skills to our distant neighbers from another hemisphere. Go Pat! Show them what Air Par is all about. Air Garrity has been cleared for an international takeoff!
I like Otis and the Magic double speak, because they wanted to be nice to Pat they say they "may" offer a contract later in the summer lol. Come on be honest lol.
