I really like this roster. A lot of flexibility I want to see a good amount of 3 guard lineups with Hampton and maybe even Harris at the 3.
I'd put Franz at SF and move Ross to greener pastures. I prefer the big lineups to the 3 guard ones, but suppose they all have their place. Really would like to see Suggs, Hampton(or Harris), Franz, Chuma, JI.
OR MCW, Harris, Franz, Okeke, JI, both for the train wreck on offense, and just to test how far a defense can go.
You were right, I thought he'd get 3 years in the 15m range.

A downside to adding a power forward with the 14th roster spot, leaving the 15th roster spot open and waiving Bacon is that it would leave the Magic without an obvious starter at small forward. James Ennis III, who occupied that role for much of last season, is an unrestricted free agent. But Magic officials could be willing to piece together playing time at the three with a combination of Michael Carter-Williams, Wagner, Okeke, Gary Harris, Terrence Ross and perhaps even Hampton.

Bacon is soooo cheap for a reason. I am doing my best to avoid any stupid puns, and we can move on from this oxymoronic chapter in Magic Basketball history.
