Kristaps Porzingis could be Magic make-up call for Fran Vázquez

The European big man is intriguing, and enticing.

Latvia's Kristaps Porzingis, a 7-foot, 19-year-old, is a bit of a project. But he has the size and the skills and experience, playing overseas for three seasons.

The Orlando Magic could take him with their first-round draft, pick, assuming some other team doesn't scoop him up (See Knicks, New York).

Pardon my pesky intrusion, but a buyer beware label needs to be stuck on Mr. Porzingis. Or at the very least, Magic GM Rob Hennigan should poke around, kick the tires, or maybe an ankle or two. Porzingis could be the bomb.
