This seems a little unfair. If the Magic *didn't* have faith in Suggs, his play has absolutely justified a benching/minutes reduction a long time ago.
He's started every game and is playing 28 minutes a night despite being statistically the worst player in the league by a mile in BPM.
Maybe we don't like his role, but I can't say they don't have faith in him as a player right now.
We all know his role is not optimal... why would we do that to a guy we just tanked for? And now fans are talking about benching him. How many games did Trae Young get benched for during his bad start of his rookie season? Zero. He started all of his games and was given the keys from day one even though he was pretty terrible for the first half of the year. 8 turnover games? No problem. Keep working through it. We need to do the same with Suggs.
