Orlando Magic Set Up for Success in 2024 Playoffs and Beyond
Savvy Personnel Maneuvers and Perfect Head Coaching Hire
A New Era of Magic
The Orlando Magic are poised for success in the 2024 playoffs and beyond, thanks to a combination of savvy personnel maneuvers and a perfect head coaching hire. Under the guidance of new head coach Steve Clifford, the Magic have assembled a young and talented roster that is ready to make an impact on the league.
One of the key moves made by the Magic was the acquisition of Paolo Banchero with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft. Banchero is a 6'10" forward who has been compared to Giannis Antetokounmpo. He is a versatile scorer who can create his own shot and make plays for others. In his first season with the Magic, Banchero averaged 20.1 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game.
Another key addition to the Magic's roster is Markelle Fultz. Fultz was acquired from the Philadelphia 76ers in a trade in 2022. He is a 6'4" point guard who is a gifted playmaker and scorer. In his first season with the Magic, Fultz averaged 13.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 5.8 assists per game.
In addition to Banchero and Fultz, the Magic have a number of other talented young players on their roster, including Cole Anthony, Jalen Suggs, Wendell Carter Jr., and Franz Wagner. These players have all shown flashes of potential, and they will be looking to take the next step in their development under Clifford.
With a talented roster in place, the Magic are now ready to take the next step. They will be looking to make a run in the 2024 playoffs, and they have the potential to be a major contender in the years to come.
