2023 Orlando Magic Player Evaluations: Jeff Weltman sets the table for team’s success
Orlando Magic president of basketball operations Jeff Weltman has been criticized for one thing during his tenure in charge of the team. Well, maybe two things depending on how you feel about his seeming obsession with length and his lack of care and attention to adding shooting.
That criticism has focused mostly on his patience.
Offseason after offseason — whether it was after the Magic’s playoff breakthrough in 2019 or their playoff disappointment in 2020 or whether it was heading into this season with cap room — the Magic seemed content to stand pat. More like they seemed content to wait out their team’s internal development and growth.
