Orlando Magic
Christmas wishlist: A nice landing spot for Aaron Gordon
The Orlando Magic have made the playoffs in each of the last two seasons in the Eastern Conference, though I’m not sure there’s anyone that is banking on them being a sure thing in the Eastern Conference this season.
While they have a team that will be competitive in the East, they don’t have a roster that strikes fear in any playoff teams. That could lead the way to a bit of a retooling. And that means trading a player or two at the NBA Trade Deadline. One particular player that is a favorite to be moved in such a scenario is Aaron Gordon.
He’s seen his name in the rumor mill before and likely will see it again at some point over the course of this season. If the Magic is looking to pivot to somewhat of a retooling, Gordon will likely be the one to be moved.
