Curious if Langford or Bol have worked out for anyone? Bol could still be injured or they could already have draft promises.


Langford isn’t working out for anyone since his thumb surgery. I don’t think Bol is working out either and why would he. Someone will take him top 15.

That thumb surgery could have essentially allowed a top 6 player drop to us at 16. #blessed. lol

Prior to the injury... he was looking like such a talent... if he darius garland it up and pulled out for the season... he would be well out of our range. Langford to me would be a great player to bring in as a replacement for fournier when the time comes.


Thumb surgery or not that jumpshot worries me. Shot 26% 6/23 from 3 before said thumb injury during duke game. Yeah it’s only 6 games but still didn’t look great.
A scoring guard.. never heard of one. :roll:

Langford is still a very interesting name and I will absolutely be patient with my feelings if he is the pick.

However, I have cooled a lot on him.

Oh absolutely anyone at 16 is getting tons of time. If it’s Langford so be it we’ve got a guard finally lol. For me this pick needs to be a guard/1-3 that’s it anything other is a fail.

And i totally get the concern... but at least he was also known to be a good shooter as well... capable of scoring at all 3 levels. I wouldn't be as keen on him if it wasn't for the fact that he wasn't elite or above average at he other 2 levels.... and gets to the line at a high rate. so he has other things that comfort me while i would assume and hope his 3 comes back around.

NAW or Hero for me. We need shotmaking. If both of them are gone Id rather trade the pick then add another non shoter. Im not big on Langford or KPJ. Im not interested in shaky shoters.

Who's Keldon Johnson's brother that also worked out for the Magic? Josh Robbins was asking about how cool it was to have his brother working out at the same time. I know he has an older brother that plays in the NFL.

I'm actually starting to like him a little too. Before the season he was known as a high motor guy that played good defense. He developed his offense at Kentucky.

I love the idea of the best-SG as the draft choice. So-called "selective" BPA.

However, I have cooled a lot on him.


Alexander-Walker's shooting makes me think he is the better prospect.

Read on Celtics board and twitter he had a helluva workout for them and if he’s there at 20 he’ll be taken.

Alexander-Walker flew into Orlando on Friday and spent the whole weekend getting to know the Magic, he revealed in interview today. John Hammond and Jeff Weltman took NAW out to lunch on Saturday.

NAW and Herro are 2 guys I'm glad we're working out. As long as either one of those or Langford are called on draft night, I'll be happy.

Haven’t seen anything stating that. Just hate our quiet our FO is in terms of workouts. Every other team you see some on court stuff and ours are prison lockdown. Heck we’ve had to hear who we’ve workout with or are through other teams interviews.

That probably had more to do with Henny and FO wanting to grab a roster of youth and force playoffs than workouts. Still a little video of the workouts wouldn’t hurt.

the word was that Elf was the only PG that performed well for Orlando. Thus, giving good info to Philly.

I'm sure Detroit will probably be taking NAw with the 15. If Langford and NAW are gone I wouldn't be opposed to taking Claxton.
