Jalen Suggs, Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner played 6 games together last year. Orlando was 41-41 but y’all want Mosley gone? Tell me you don’t know basketball 🏀 without telling me you don’t know basketball.

This is why he was drafted #1 overall. Scoring versatility. Pull-up 3, post, cut for dunk, midrange pull-up and hard drive with left spin for layup. How do you want it?

I literally never heard of this injury to a basketball player before Paolo. Now it’s happened to Franz. How!?
Just in: Orlando Magic star forward Franz Wagner has suffered a torn right oblique and is out indefinitely, sources tell ESPN. Wagner sustained the injury Friday night and will be re-evaluated in four weeks.

Weltman and Mosley have done everything the fan base wanted. If it doesnt work…..
UPDATE: League sources tell @TheSteinLine that Orlando is indeed adding Bucks assistant Joe Prunty as well as God Shammgod to Jamahl Mosley’s coaching staff … on top of on-court additions Desmond Bane and Tyus Jones and the draft selections of Jase Richardson and Noah Penda.

Paolo said he doesn’t want to be the PG. That means Orlando should try to acquire a PG. It’s that simple. No more Paolo is the PG. Thank you. Good night.

I think if Simons were on this team he would come off the bench. As much as I wouldn’t mind it, I don’t see Orlando giving up first round picks for a bench player. Now if Ayton is included that’s a different story.

There some microwave takes after 6 games.
-KCP signing is a failure.
-Suggs is better than Franz.
-Black is ready to start.
It’s still early let the team grow while Paolo is out. It’s too early to make such judgments.

He focuses on ball handling and helping players make quicker decisions on the court.
Dallas Mavericks player development coach God Shammgod has agreed to join the Orlando Magic as an assistant coach, Andy Miller of Klutch Sports tells ESPN. Shammgod has worked for the Mavericks since 2019 and now receives a larger role in Orlando.

Inserting Joseph into the starting lineup and adding Houstan to the rotation have been great moves by Coach Mosley.

Coach Mosley is known for defense and player development. It’s no surprise this was Mo Bamba’s most productive year. This video shows him practicing one-on-one with Bamba. I look forward to him doing the same with Paolo Banchero.

The Magic currently have 7 players that can initiate the offense and conduct pick and rolls:

-Anthony Black
-Markelle Fultz
-Joe Ingles
-Jalen Suggs

This is a tremendous advantage in a motion offense.

Always bet on Duke forwards and Kentucky PGs.
There’s buzz building around a potential draft slide for Rob Dillingham, who is unlikely to go in the top-10.
Dillingham’s size — 6’1” without shoes and a 6’3” wingspan — alongside many lottery teams not prioritizing point guards could be pushing him down the board.
Don’t be surprised if Dillingham slides to a solid situation for a contending team outside the lottery.
The Heat and Magic are two teams who have been recently linked to Dillingham.

Don’t even think about Magic fans
After a disappointing season with the Suns, Tyus Jones will likely need to settle for another prove-it deal on the veteran’s minimum.
Jones will draw a lot of interest from teams in need of additional playmaking ability.
Jones averaged 10.2 points and 5.3 assists this season.

Off the bench for the Magic?
After signing a two-year, $20 million extension in February, Lonzo Ball is expected to be made available in trade talks by the Bulls.
Ball’s $10 million annual salary, which includes a team option for 2026-27, is easily digestible for contending teams in need of guard depth.

Bane has always been a favorite of mine. A throwback type of player. Reminds of Mitch Richmond. I never if though trade scenarios for him because why would Memphis trade a 26-yr old under contract for the next 4 years? I’ve been critical of Weltman but I like this move.

I don’t think Tyus Jones is the difference between the Magic making the playoffs or not. Small PG on an awful team who is free-agent after this year. The infatuation with him by some Magic fans doesn’t make sense to me.

Look at the Boston Celtics defensive versatility. The Orlando Magic want defensive versatility. Tyus Jones doesn’t fit that profile.

Signing KCP is a double whammy for Denver. They lose a starter and Orlando gains one. Also, Orlando owns Denver’s 2025 first round pick thanks to the Aaron Gordon trade. I assume Denver’s record will be worse this year.

He’s probably done for the year.
If I’m being honest I would trade him in the offseason. I’m huge fan but injuries are becoming a big concern.
In terms of the team, I would play all young guys. If this cause the team to miss the playoffs so be it.
Tough blow: Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs is out indefinitely due to a trochlea injury in his left knee, sources tell ESPN. During his return to play, Suggs experienced discomfort and had further testing. He's expected to make a full recovery.

Hot 🥵 take. Beal is a better fit for the Magic than Lillard is.
Bradley Beal will be giving back at least $14 million of his $110.8 million salary to the Suns in a buyout.
At this figure, Phoenix then has the decision to stretch his contract.
If stretched, Phoenix avoids the luxury tax altogether and gains immediate access to the full MLE.
