2021-2022 Post-Mortem: Admiral Schofield

[Knightro]

Hi everyone,

I'm going to do a poll about every player on the roster over the next few weeks leading into the draft lotto. Looking to get some general thoughts on what the Magic should do with each player moving forward.

We'll go from the guys who played the least to the guys who played the most.

What should the Magic do with Admiral Schofield?

If he’s on the roster next year, we’re still focused on tanking. I do appreciate his grit and professionalism but he is not an NBA player.

[RookieStar]

I would ratger use his roster spot on a young developing 7ft big man

I think he is a good target for a 2-way player at Lakeland.

All teams eventually need call-up guys. And at least he understands the system.

Thanks for your time here, but it's time we part ways. Appreciate your effort and for filling in, I think my memory of him is rattling Montrezl Harrell in one of our final games of the season lol.

I didnt see anything that suggests hes a rotation player. Let's move on.

I'll remember you trying to fight Harrel though. That was awesome

Extend him. He did not show everything he is capable of. Hes a much better shooter than he showed, he passes the ball and can dribble without stumbilng over himself. Hopefully his toughness can rub off. Every playoff team needs a guy who can ruffle feathers.

But, is he an NBA player?

I believe he's worthy of it. We're in the process of developing young players and I think he can develop into a 3 and D guy who can fill a real role in today's NBA.

Another way of asking this is, "Is Schofield one of the best 500 basketball players in the world"? He's probably just around that cusp.

Maybe on a make good contract but roster spots will be tight on next year's team.

I have to be honest I would rather give one of our 2nd rounders a shot than Admiral.
