We also discuss the additions of Nikola Vucevic and Jevon Carter, Orlando’s two-way signings, how close the team is to the second apron, and whether the Magic still have room to make another move before training camp.

One day into free agency… how would you grade the Orlando Magic's offseason so far? 🤔
Which move surprised you the most: bringing back Jonathan Isaac, reuniting with Nikola Vucevic, or letting Mo Wagner walk? Let me know your grade (A-F) and why! 🏀⬇
I really dont understand the Isaac signing. Perhaps he wants a good relationship with his agents 🤔 vucevic is for me an alibi-move like tyus jones last year. Carter i think is ok. So Overall i give the offseason a d so far 😒
What does waive and stretch mean?
Carter no he is not ok we dont need to keep signing players that in another teamwill be the 11 th man or 12 th man like WTF Mo wagner is better then people think ..u get vuje to for no reason is the same recycling of no offensive players …SAME SHIT DOES THIS PEOPLE KNOW BASKETBALL
