Jalen Green
Jalen Green was one of the top players coming out of high school. He decided to skip out on college and sign with the Ignite in the G-League. During his time, Green showed that he is ready for the next level. He averaged 17.9 points per game, which led the team. He was performing against other prospects and former NBA players. The Magic will have to land a top-five pick in order to get Green.
This is a player with a high ceiling and one that is expected to be a superstar. Jalen Green has raw ability but still has some room to grow. That is a scary thought. At 6-foot-5, Green has good size for a guard and showed that he is a true two-way player.
During his games in the G-League, Jalen Green was dynamic on both ends of the floor. There is a chance that he develops at a quick pace, especially on a team like Orlando where he will get plenty of minutes. Green has a chance to be a franchise player and that is what the Magic are looking for.
