Bol Bol, Son of Manute Bol.
Bounced around, trying to get healthy, with zero playing time behind Jokic in Denver; a failed physical in Detroit; a cup of coffee in Boston, before finally alighting in Orlando.
The Magic appear to have hit PAYDIRT.
Selected #44 by the Miami Heat in the 2019 R.J. Barrett.
This 7'2" power forward can run the floor, handle the rock, put the ball on the floor, and score inside or outside.
In 27 minutes a night, he has hit 24-54 of his threes [.426%], 44-56 FTs [.786%], while shooting 128-196 for a .653 FG%.

That is a pretty formidable assemblage of skilled bigs.
Wonder who Thibs would nail to the pine?
Nevertheless, Magic have been dealing with injuries, and while 8-9 at home, are 1-11 on the road.
PS: Hmmmm, think they would draft Victor Wembanyama if they end up with the #1 in the Draft Lottery?
