Some guy could be 15ft tall but if his wingspan is less than 7'2 WeHam will easily pass. :lol:

Tank move?

This move is to give The Magic a big body off the bench following the decision to allow Khem Birch to move on.

Ironically, Donta Hall was with The Toronto Raptors last month who Khem Birch plans to join up with.

Hall is simply going to be the third center and a backup power forward on this team. Whether he stays beyond ten days, depends on how he plays or performs in practice.

It's nice to have enough money under the tax threshold now to give these young guys a look.

Good, it's time to sign these guys and see if any of them pan out for next season.

a) He will more than double his annual salary this year in these 10-days.

b) Hall is clearly a very good rebounder, meaning he has a nose for being in the right place on long rebounds.

c) Does his excellent bpg metrics over a 36 adjustment mean he has capacity fo NBA-level man defense?

d) As his stat-lines exudes "Early Khem Birch", I am super interested to see how he sets pick. Mr. Hall could very well be auditioning fora 3rd string contract on the 2021/22 roster.

Donta Hall looks to be everything I would hope for in the Magic's SRP. I would rather have Hall (over TImme for example).

For a high SRP like ours I would prefer we get a pure offensive shooting big man rather than so-so average bigs. The UVA twin towers, Matt Hurt, Garza, etc. Those guys can put up shots and score quickly.

Cannady was released from his 10-day contract. I'm assuming that Cannady may end up getting Mane's two-way contract spot, but who knows?
