Why The Orlando Magic Do The Deal 

Realistically, the Magic have the same two factors in mind here. 

Granted, sending out a pick swap isn’t generally advisable for a future-focused team. At the same time, this deal forces Orlando to set a deadline for itself.

Luckily, this team is on a trajectory that should make that goal feasible. Adding Trent Jr. should help them meet it, too. After all, their roster construction wants a player like him.

He should help them continue to trend upward in the process.
