The Orlando Magic may not own a first-round pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, but that doesn't mean they're completely out of the hunt for a really deep draft class.
Let's look at some potential second-round guards that fans should know! @MagicOnSI#MakeItMagic

Banchero not being asked to create every advantage from scratch will ultimately unlock another level for himself as a scorer and the Magic’s offense as a whole.

Watching the Magic and Heat compete for which team is more mid on a nightly basis is beyond riveting.
(I’m beginning to think I am the reason why both are, unfortunately. I’ll take blame.)

I asked Paolo Banchero how he adjusts his mindset in the middle of a game when the gameplan stops working:
“I only took 10 Shots, I could’ve been a lot more aggressive…
Me having 9 Turnovers just wasn’t a good enough effort by me.”
I asked Orlando Magic HC Jamahl Mosley about turnovers, Detroit’s defensive intensity, and Orlando’s late game decision making:
“It’s a tale of two halves, so something was working.
At the end of the day, you have to stick with what is working.
You’re not gonna change that.”
