    Wanted him originally out of Auburn many years ago – now he’s here.

    Another wing depth player – never can have enough of those

    I actually always liked him. Was in maybe the worst situation imaginable on the Magic.

    Don’t actually have any hopes of him playing significant minutes but curious how he looks on a team with some real spacing.

    Career 38% 3pt shooter averaging 6ppg, and last year was his worst statistical year. Idk wtf we did this other than simply for the sake of filling a roster spot

  4. What kind of deal did he sign? I’m assuming some sort of camp invite or something. If not this is unexpected. Would have expected a vet big or someone w the MLE or Arcidiacono.

    he kinda reminds me of jonathan simmons a few years back, he will shoot, but isn’t great at it, but has decent handles and is kind of a bowling ball going downhill, an okay defender.

    its a big and obvious what if, but if the ball just goes into the basket more, he’s a decent rotation player.

    my dad, a magic fan thought okeke would be a good player “cause he can get you 20 if he had the ball more” so i always looked out for him watching magic games lmao.

    This will MOST DEFINITELY assure us the championship

  7. I’d guess this is a training camp deal right? I expect to see many more similar deals with most of these dudes get waived before pre-season.

  8. Nah I like this guy. Orlando fans hated him but I think he has nice skills for a big wing, good all around game nothing spectacular. I don’t know enough to speak to his advanced stats but I wouldn’t be surprised if his profile is similar to young IHart’s.

    CHUMA GORATH!!

    I guess the team is done with roster construction for now?
