Orlando Magic Sign KCP: What’s Next for Their Free Agency Moves?
the Orlando Magic finally have a shooter ladies and gentlemen welcome back to another video you watch a high tide jet ride the tide and subscribe today talking about the Orlando Magic just signed cavius cwell Pope to a 3-year $66 million deal player option on the last year this was a great move by the magic I know they were in conversations to have a meeting with Paul George but Paul George is making a crap ton of money I don’t think that would have made sense for the magic especially I mean don’t get me wrong magic fans would have been hyped I would have been hyped but realistically Paulo’s only going to get better fron should only get better they play the same position as Paul George Paul George is older he has injury history and just the salary in general putting all that money towards one player is kind of like oh I don’t know but don’t get me wrong if it would have happened I would have been hyped but anyways kcp on the magic let’s look up some stats real quick so yeah a couple things with kcp so he won a ring with the Lakers he won a ring with the Nuggets he shot 41% from three 43% from corner three play 96% of regular season games essentially what they want is an upgrade from Gary Harris kcp 3o shooter kcp great defender kcp healthy that’s an upgrade from Gary Harris is right there everyone wanted the magic to address this bad shooting and they did it with kcp I think it’s a great deal maybe he got a little more than he would have got on another team but I think it’s a great move you get a veteran a champion a three-point shooter who plays defense he’ll definitely be in the starting lineup there’s reports that the Knicks were trying to go after Goa baz but the magic allegedly um have a deal on the table for GOA that the Knicks can’t match so it looks like Goa may be returning to the magic as far as free agency goes I’m not sure what the magic are looking for Twitter wants an upgrade at Center they want to upgrade at starting center I mean it’s going to have to be via trade cuz I don’t see any good centers left on the market hartenstein just signed with OKC you still have frons and Suggs that need their legit contracts they’re still on those rookie contracts but this is where okay forget free agency for now Jaylen Suggs as the starting point guard I’m still not convinced I mean let me know if you guys feel the same way start is Jaylen Suggs the starting point guard of the magic can he be like a six-man who gets starter minutes for the magic and let Anthony black run the point guard okay so the thing I’m up in the air with is Jaylen Suggs being the starting point guard I’m not sold on that I kind of prefer jaylen’s like I love Jaylen Suggs don’t get me wrong but I would prefer a legit point guard and Jaylen Suggs at the two if he’s going to be starting at this point I feel like kcp has to start so kcp at the two and then at point guard I still would want the magic to look for a legit point guard I don’t think Anthony black should be starting just yet my dream scenario would be kcp starting at the two jayen Suggs coming off the bench at the two but getting starter minutes Anthony Black coming off the bench as the point guard Cole Anthony I’m not sure man do you think the magic are making calls about Cole Anthony I don’t know I’ve been coming up with trade scenarios in my head cuz you know Lakers are trying to clear up space so what if like a dowlo on the magic starting point guard next to kcp Jaylen sugs the Marcus Smart type role six Man of the Year type player my mind is going crazy and then you got like the cam Johnson rumors with the Nets maybe like a three- team trade or just straight up cam Johnson to the magic for Cole Anthony the thing with Cam Johnson is he’s making like 20 million a year or something like that with three years left on the deal but my thing is you know take advantage of the rookie contracts while you have them take advantage of Anthony black jet Howard Tristan the Silva being on rookie contracts put the salary towards role players that are going to contribute big time if you look at the bench who’s who’s going to be the lineup Off the Bench let’s say right now you’re going base on what’s going on right now starting lineup Suggs kcp fron Paulo wend Carter then you got the bench Anthony black Cole Anthony uh I’m assuming they’re bringing Joe Engles back I don’t know if you want to put him at the three or you going to put the Silva at the three or you going to put Houston at the three or you going to put jet Howard at the three and then you got Jonathan Isaac Mo Vagner I feel like that three guard that that three position Off the Bench can be upgraded and the the magic have money to upgrade it I would love cam Johnson Off the Bench at the three if not uh if you’re going free agency wise you’re not going trade-wise I think a Caleb Martin would be good but anyways guys let me know what you guys think I love the kcp deal he is a winner he is going to bring that winning attitude to the magic three-year deal it’s great and if things don’t work out he’s very tradable piece so it’s not like the magic really lost anything again guys the magic have to spend this money it’s just a matter of how they’re going to spend it what moves are they going to make the kcp move is a winning move they’re trying to show Paulo France everybody on the team like hey guys we’re we’re serious now the games are over oh KK’s Gone marquel’s Gone Gary Harris is gone think goa’s coming back Mo Vagner is definitely going to come back they’re just going to restructure his deal I feel like they’re going to bring Joe Engles back but they’re probably going to add another year to his deal just cheaper and he’s probably not going to play the way he was I think he was like our three coming off the bench I think this upcoming season he’s barely going to play he’s just going to be more of a locker room type of guy and that’s probably why the deal is going to be cheaper but he’s probably looking at it like hey don’t have to play play get paid I’m in Orlando da I don’t know that’s just my opinion but let me know what you guys think should the magic be targeting an upgrade at Center should the magic be targeting another Wing Off the Bench should the magic be targeting a starting point guard and should jayen sus be the Firepower six Man of the Year getting starter minutes off the bench a lot of questions let me know what you guys think like comment subscribe more videos on the way I appreciate y’all for watching I’mma holl at y’all later peace PE

Jalen Suggs was the best PG in the Nation when he was in high school. Suggs was named to the AP All-State first team and MaxPreps Junior All-American third team. As a senior, he averaged 23.3 points, 7.5 rebounds, five assists and 3.9 steals per game. That's his natural position.
Gary harris is back
