28. Orlando Magic
The Orlando Magic might be finally hitting their stride with this young roster. They’ve won five games in a row and Paolo Banchero continues to be the consistent star that the team has been looking for recently. He still needs to get to a place where he’s more efficient on the offensive end of the floor, but the talent is there.
Add another top 5 pick in the 2023 NBA Draft and the Magic may be on to something special.
27. San Antonio Spurs
I’m interested to see not only what the San Antonio Spurs elect to do at the NBA Trade Deadine but also how they approach the offseason. This is a team that needs to figure out what the next step is for the build.
Quite frankly, I’m not really sure what that would look like. The good news is that I don’t need to know. And you kind of have to trust this front office.
