Suggs, Franz, and Free Agency - Episode 59 - August 8, 2021

Discussing the NBA Draft party at Amway Center. The fan reaction may have been louder for when Scottie Barnes was selected 4th by the Toronto Raptors than when the Magic picked Jalen Suggs 5th. Hot Take: Pops is not happy that the team drafted Jalen Suggs over Jonathan Kuminga and Franz Wagner over Moses Moody. At least most Magic fans seem thrilled with how the draft night played out. Why Jeff Weltman selecting Jason Preston at pick 33 and shipping him off to the L.A. Clippers for cash and a 2026 second was cruel. Either way, no one will truly know for 2-3 years which picks were right and which were wrong. As expected, free agency has been quiet. It’s basically been signing Robin Lopez, and re-signing Moe Wagner so far. Vegas Summer league starts this week. Jamahl Mosley is really pushing his ‘Pace, Space, Pass’ motto. Magic men like Cole Anthony, RJ Hampton, the new rookies, and Janis Timma(?) are participating. #LetsGoMagic #MagicTogether Warning: Adult Language Songs: Feels Like Summer – Childish Gambino
