1. Orlando Magic – Jabari Smith, F, Auburn
Over the past couple of months, I’d have to imagine that the Orlando Magic have gone back and forth and perhaps all three top prospects when it comes to making the No. 1 overall selection. However, with draft week upon us, I’d have to imagine that they are close (if not already decided) to making a decision.
In the end, I believe that Jabari Smith is the smart play here for the Magic. They need some sizzle to the roster and a player that has the potential to be a high-end offensive player. I believe Smith has all that potential.
Between Smith and Chet Holmgren, the Magic will go with the more dynamic player and hope it does not come back to haunt them in the future.
