NBA Trade Rumors: Orlando Magic open to trading everyone except Victor Oladipo
By Josh Hill
The Orlando Magic are one of the worst teams in the NBA despite their recent winning stretch and despite the fact they’re two spots out of last place in the Eastern Conference. Orlando, unlike other teams at the bottom of the conference, aren’t interested in winning this year and have eyes set on the NBA Draft this summer.
It’s for this reason that the team is open to trades at the deadline, as Marc J. Spears from Yahoo! Sports writes that Orlando is willing to trade anyone and everyone outside of rookie guard Victor Oladipo.
"Outside of talented rookie guard Victor Oladipo, sources say the Magic are open to talking trade but have nothing imminent."
The key phrase there is that nothing is imminent for the Magic on the trade front. They’re in listening mode at the moment and don’t appear to be actively pursuing a trade, although is soundalike they won’t be turning away calls that don’t include talk of Oladipo.
