ORLANDO - If they decide to select a big man with the 16th overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft, the Magic will likely have some intriguing options available for them to consider.
That’s because several of the top power forwards and centers in this draft are projected to be middle to late first round picks.
Three of them – Maryland’s Bruno Fernando, Florida State’s Mfiondu Kabengele and LSU’s Naz Reid – were at Amway Center on Friday for a pre-draft workout.
Fernando, who hails from Luanda, Angola, played at Florida’s Montverde Academy and IMG Academy before spending two years at Maryland, where he was named to the First-Team All-Big Ten and Big Ten All-Defensive Team this past season.
