Jalen Suggs said he felt like a kid on Christmas morning. And Magic fans probably felt the same way watching him.
The No. 5 overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft made one hell of a first impression during his unofficial NBA debut, leading the Magic to a 91-89 overtime win over the Golden State Warriors in Orlando’s Summer League opener.
Suggs had a game-high 24 points, shooting 9-for-22 from the field, including 3 of 6 from three. He also added nine rebounds, two steals and three blocks, one of which was a potential game saver that’s headed for the highlight reels.
