Orlando Magic Player Evaluations: Andrew Nicholson
Final Grade
Nicholson was never given the opportunity. And the only conclusion was that those mixed results were also apparent in practices. Thus, he did not play very much at all.
When he was in, his results were mixed.
He showed signs of what everyone thought he could be when he played. He just could not get consistent playing time. That said as much as anything about his play in 2015. And that was not good.
Nicholson did not distinguish himself in his third year. There will certainly be no extension and there certainly will not be no guarantees about his playing beyond this final year of his rookie contract. This was the biggest problem for Nicholson.
What he showed at the end of the season was hope he can get back to waht made him a rotation player his rookie season. With further improvements defensively, he can get back there. The pressure is just ramped up to show it sooner rather than later.
