Why The Orlando Magic Do The Deal 

Anthony may have star potential, but he’s not the only player on Orlando who can make that claim. 

After all, the Magic just selected Paolo Banchero with the first overall pick. Banchero is a point forward with fantastic self-creation and passing chops. The Magic are surely hoping he’ll be the focal point of their offense for years to come. 

On the other hand, look for Franz Wagner to challenge him for that title. After a surprisingly productive rookie season, some fans see star upside in his game as well.

Meanwhile, there is, as they say, only one ball.

Luckily, Vassell doesn’t need it to impact the game. He’s more of an off-ball threat, and a quality defender to boot. With so many ball-dominant players on the team already, he feels like a better fit for this young Magic squad. 

After all, what could be more important than balance?
