How This Trade Impacts Orlando Magic
The Orlando Magic are in a transitional period as a franchise right now. The team moved on from Nikola Vucevic, Aaron Gordon, and Evan Fournier at the NBA trade deadline last season and managed to net the fifth and eighth overall picks in the NBA Draft.
There are a few routes the Magic could justify going as the start of the 2021-22 season approaches. If the goal is to continue to add more assets, then making a trade involving Terrence Ross makes a lot of sense.
There will be no shortage of contenders interested in adding a complementary scorer like Ross who can thrive as a shot creator but also at hitting tough shots off the move.
For the Magic, managing to add an expiring contract along with a first-round pick would be a solid return that checks the main boxes for what they should seek in return for Ross.

A benefit of the Magic making a trade involving Ross sooner rather than later is just the fact that it creates more of a pathway to involve young talents more in the offense and in the rotation, too.
