It’s still pretty early into the season, but the run that the Magic have been on is pretty crazy. The Raptors have a pretty weak offense, the Magic completely snuffed them out in their game last week.
It didn’t look like they have any major offseason moves either. What changed?
Blasphemy cause he does so many things well, but I don’t think it’s a coincidence this run has happened without Fultz.
Youre not missing his defense since the Magic are stacked at guard defensively. On offense Banchero/Franz are getting more shots per game (2 and 3 per game respectively w/out Fultz) + Suggs has been shooting very well so far. Black has been a work in progress but moving him to the starters has made the bench lineups having more shooting around Cole Anthon instead of Black.
Fultz is good but if they’re going to play Anthony Black (which they probably should), it’s very hard to balance three guards getting minutes who do not space the floor (Suggs likely not getting a ton of attention from defenses yet but could change that if he keeps it up)
