With the Orlando Magic struggling a bit in the early portion of the season, it might be time to take a look at who is available on the trade market.

The Orlando Magic have made no secret about their intention to make the Playoffs this season. There were many moves Orlando made this offseason, and yet another may be needed.

Many NBA analysts forecasted the Magic’s struggles on offense. The addition of Serge Ibaka and Bismack Biyombo haven’t had a lead role in the offense. Moving Aaron Gordon out of position and asking him to shoot, paired with Elfrid Payton‘s shooting woes makes points hard to come by.

While the team’s inconsistent offense can partially be traced to a new coach, new teammates and the like. the game has always been about putting the ball in the hoop. The Magic are not doing that well.

It is not a time to hit the panic button just yet. But a small tweak in the lineup could have a significant impact.

Let’s take a look at a few options rumored to be available on the trade market that could surely help Orlando get on track.
