    EGO seems like a good Magic fit, they need a solid combo guard.

    EGO+ House/Bmac + late FRP for Bamba+ expiring (Fournier?).

    Good news. Expect him to be back mid-March. We have to pick up an athletic big to stem the tide and split C minutes with boogie and tuck. There will also be 5mins or so of that small ball frontcourt of tate, nwaba and brown.

    Remember Klay Thompson injury this year. It was announced the next day he was out-for the season after a MRI. So, this is very hopeful. Coming from a could-be serious injury to being cut by a team in China. What a tough road.......

    He's 22 and the 6th pick in the draft.
    Behind a monster in Vuc.

    I just think it would take a lot more to get this guy. And, how much can we justify in spending in draft capital? Could we play him with CW down the road?
    If not, Im not sure we should spend a lot more in picks.
    We need a journeyman type to play with Cousins in Wood's stead IMO. Someone cheap, but functional.
    I really like the idea of Bamba, but Im afraid the Magic would be too proud of him. Unless they could play together eventually.

    But you need a medical degree to diagnose it was only a sprain.

    You guys shouldn't be so quick to dip into our first rounders for a guy like Bamba.

    We’re done, this season is weird, trade Dipo and or Gordon while you can, get a decent big in return and sign Gerald Green. Just let the youngsters play. Sign Mason Jones to a regular contract too.
