Retrospective: The Top-10 Power Forwards in Orlando Magic History

4. Bo Outlaw

Bo Outlaw is one of those guys whose energy and hustle made up for any and all deficiencies he brought to the table offensively. That is to say, Outlaw was not much of a scorer, but in a chase for a loose ball you just somehow knew it would end up in his hands. 

Pairing him with another such player, Darrell Armstrong, kept the Magic competitive and in games.

It was known as the “Heart and Hustle” era, and Outlaw embodied the concept every bit as well as Armstrong. Outlaw played four full seasons in Orlando before being traded to Phoenix. He would return to Orlando four years later to finish his last three seasons in blue and white. Outlaw retired at age 36 in Orlando, after having played a very minor role in the 2006 and 2007 seasons.

Outlaw started 222 games for the Magic and averaged 7.3 points, 7.7 rebounds and three block/steals per game in the 2000-01 season. He did not really play outside himself either, mostly sticking to dunks and field goals he knew he could knock down. Due to that, he shot 61.4 percent from the floor in that 2001 season, which was his finest as a pro. He even shot over 60 percent from the free throw line that year, despite his 52.1 percent career mark from the stripe.
