NBA Trade Deadline 2018: 5 trades to put the Magic back in the Orlando Magic

The Orlando Magic have one of the worst records in the NBA and are in desperate need of a shake-up. We’ve got some ideas that could help them blow it all up, and rebuild from the ashes.

After starting the 2017-18 season red hot, the Orlando Magic have been hit by a bomb cyclone of a cool-off. They’re stuck at the bottom of the NBA standings with a roster full of overpaid role players that don’t quite mesh together.

The franchise is in desperate need of a foundational rebuild. Even worse, they are a long way from seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. A lot would have to happen to right the Magic’s ship.

Luckily for Orlando, we’ve got just what they need. Five potential trades they could pull off at the deadline to correct their course for the future. We’re setting up these trades to help Orlando shed some unwanted contracts, get back draft picks and potential young talent in return, and look towards a brighter future in the Magic Kingdom.
