Best Offseason Scenario to lead The Orlando Magic to a championship 🥵🥵
This includes Trades, Drafts, Offseason Signings and Lineups!
Why would Hawks 🦅 do this trade ⁉️
Murray / Young don't fit together as a duo 🚫
Cole Anthony is a great scorer who can bring the energy and hustle the Hawks need
Wendell is a multi use player he can shoot, rebound and defend well. He could be very valuable for depth on a team like the Hawks
Hawks bank🤑 3 1st round picks in this trade building around Murray, Jalen and there 1st overall pick
Why would Magic 🎩 do this trade ⁉️
Get a star⭐️ to add to the former 5th seed team
They need an elite passer to take this team to the next level
Trae could excel well with a team like Magic who can hide his weaknesses on defense 👏
Magics Offseason Signings
Klay🎯 for 25.3m for 3 years
In a different setting Klay could go back to his old self and Magic are the leading team to land him as Warriors aren't looking to overpay him
Claxton⚠️ for 24.7m for 3 years
Claxton would be a huge addition to this already proven defensive team. He can slow down superstar centers like embiid or catch lobs on offense when needed.
Fultz for 8.89m for 2 years
Fultz has grown a lot in Orlando and I don't think he would go elsewhere. He's a serviceable guard whose shown he can play hard on defense or attack the rim when given the opportunity.
Garry for 8m for 2 years
Garry has been a threat from the 3 point line (37%) and has been a seriously underrated defender averaging a steal a game.
Goga Bitadze for 3m for 1yr
Goga has been an incredible upside for Magic last season and there's no reason why they shouldn't offer him another contract, he plays his role to a tee and can become a great force on the defensive end.
Joe👴 for 5m for 1yr
You need veteran experience in NBA Basketball and Joe has brought that last season and more shooting 43% from the 3. Joe is a much needed locker room guy and would be a great addition to get him on a team friendly deal after the success from last season.
Who would they draft ⁉️
With the 18th pick in the NBA draft I would draft college forward "Tristan da Silva" he's a 6ft 9 forward who shoots 39.5% from the 3🎯 which would pair well on the bench alongside Johnathan Isaac 🔒
Coming in at the 47th pick for the Magic "Ajay Mitchell" 6'5 guard whose a 39% 3 point shooter and averages 6 fts a game which would be very useful addition to the defensive minded team ✅️
What would the Starting Lineup look like ⁉️
PG: Trae Young SG: Klay Thompson SF: Franz Wagner PF: Paolo Banchero C: Nic Claxton
Bench lineup
Fultz, Suggs, Garry, Joe, Isaac, Mortiz
Reserve
Goga, Houston, Tristan, Ajay
Why would this team work ⁉️
This team was ranked 2nd in defensive rating last season and now you add a top 5 defensive center in the league in Claxton 🕺 who can slow down the stars like Giannis and Joel! While also resigning proven complementary players in Harris, Fultz and Goga.
All there missing offensively is some solid 3 point shooting and an elite passer to take this team to the next level in which Trae Young is just that❗️ Trae is averaging 11 assists a game with another passing guard in Murray, just imagine what he can do on his own with rising stars Franz, Paolo and lob threat Nic Claxton.
Klay Thompson in a different setting with a team who were just a top 5 seed could change his whole career around. All the Magic need him to do is shoot the ball 🙌
