Orlando Magic

Draft Picks: Stephen Zimmerman No. 41

Continuing from the previous slide, the Magic brought over Serge Ibaka from the Thunder. Ibaka, who had been overshadowed by Enes Kanter and Steven Adams this past season, gets a new start alongside Nikola Vucevic.

Along with the selection of skilled big man Stephen Zimmerman, new coach Frank Vogel has nice frontcourt depth to go along with developing players Elfrid Peyton, Mario Hezonia and Aaron Gordon.

The biggest question will be replacing Olapido and passing on devloping No. 11 selection Domantas Sabonis for Ibaka.

Grade: C+

Next: Philadelphia 76ers
