Seeing as they traded away Nikola Vucevic, Aaron Gordon and Evan Fournier at the trade deadline last year and will likely look to move Terrence Ross at some point this upcoming season, the Orlando Magic are rebuilding and looking to add young, dynamic talents to their roster. 

Being only 24-years-old and coming into his own as an all-around offensive talent, Malik Beasley could absolutely be a player the Magic show interest in, especially since they are looking to move Terrence Ross and also have a $17.2M TPE from trading Evan Fournier to the Celtics last season. By moving either Ross or using this TPE, the Magic would be able to bring in Beasley and his contract pretty easily. 

With Jalen Suggs being their rookie leader in the backcourt, along with other backcourt talents in Cole Anthony, Markelle Fultz, Michael Carter-Williams and Gary Harris, the Magic may not need another shooting guard like Malik Beasley, but they could easily fit him in on the wing, a position in which they really do not have much talent right now. 

The Magic did draft Franz Wagner with the 8th pick this year, but he alone is not going to be able to carry all the weight on the wing in Orlando.

The addition of Malik Beasley gives the Magic another young offensive threat to play around with, possibly giving them the extra firepower they need to actually be a decent team instead of a last-place team in the Eastern Conference.
