Magic Skip First Round Draft

Orlando Magic skip the NBA Draft’s first round for the first time since 2008—no pick at all this year—thanks to a trade last summer that sent their 16th overall selection to Memphis for Desmond Bane. With a loaded young core already in place, the front office is happy to watch from the sidelines as Memphis and other teams jockey for position. Orlando still holds the 46th pick in the second round and is weighing options, but their focus is squarely on building chemistry—not drafting another rookie.
