The Orlando Magic are a young team with a bright future that might accelerate their development next season. With interesting pieces like Paolo Banchero, Franz Wagner, Bol Bol, and others, the Magic present one of the most promising rosters in the entire association.
If that wasn’t enough, they are reportedly set to bring in some interesting veterans next offseason, and they have set their sights on one of the most sought-after names in the past 2023 trade deadline. Fred VanVleet of the Toronto Raptors has been on the radar of many teams, including the Los Angeles Clippers. Now, he could take a very different route and join the Magic.
According to Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports (via Sports Illustrated), the Magic are believed that “come summer, they’d be willing to talk ‘some serious money’ with VanVleet,” adding an interesting player to their competitive but inexperienced roster.
Orlando Magic Could Pair LeBron And Bronny James In 2024
The Magic have been mentioned in several rumors recently, including one that could affect the NBA drastically. ESPN recently projected Bronny James to be drafted by the Magic, which could prompt LeBron James to join the Floridian team, something unthinkable a couple of years ago.
This could give Orlando a huge opportunity to compete in the Eastern Conference, and if they manage to land Fred VanVleet one year before, they will look like a serious playoff team in 2024. They are linked with a series of rumors now, but only time will tell what ends up happening with the Magic.
VanVleet is a great option for them after all the things he’s done on the Toronto Raptors, even helping them win the 2019 NBA championship. In 50 games, he’s averaging 19.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 6.6 assists with the Raptors, shooting 39.4% from the field and 89.3% from the free-throw line.
