Offseason

This does not technically count as something we will see in the season, but it is something to look forward to. And has already dominated the discussion as the Playoffs have faded away.

This upcoming draft class is something solid, and free agents are always buzzing.

Trading Tobias Harris and Channing Frye was also done to clear cap room. It was a smart decision, just in case the Magic do not find the gem they want in the draft and to speed the rebuild up to get to the Playoffs in 2017.

The Draft still has several intriguing options — maybe Skal Labissiere would be a good option as a backup big man for scoring and rim protection? Could Buddy Hield add the backcourt shooting the Magic need?

The Magic definitely have options to turn this team around.
