6. Orlando Magic – Trae Young, G, Oklahoma

Even though some believe that taking a guard (not named Luka Doncic) at No. 6 would be the absolute definition of reaching in this draft, the Orlando Magic could really use a guard from this pool.

And the best one might be Trae Young, who had an explosive – and somewhat up and down – freshman season at Oklahoma.

This wouldn’t exactly be surprising, and is something that the Magic do. But if Orlando is in love with Trae Young as a prospect, who am I to judge them?
