Why The Orlando Magic Do The Deal 

Not directly, no. This is not a win-now move for Orlando. That’s fine – Orlando is not a win-now team. They’re going to be selecting in the NBA’s lottery again this summer. 

For the Magic, this is mostly about moving on from Bamba’s contract. He’s receiving DNPs on a fairly regular basis this year.

It feels like they’re more committed to Wendell Carter Jr. and Bol Bol at the 5. 

With that in mind, they might as well get some value for Bamba. Powell’s exporting contract and a pair of second-round picks are probably the most they can ask for.
