Magic reportedly bringing forward James Ennis back on one-year deal

The Magic appear to have filled another roster spot as they reportedly have reached an agreement on a one-year contract with Ennis. Shams Charania of Stadium and The Athletic first reported the deal.

Earlier in the week, the veteran forward declined to exercise his $2.13 million player option for 2020-21. Coming back for the same length of time on a new deal would seem to indicate Ennis could be getting more money or that he’s on track to be the Magic’s starting small forward.

In fact, Ennis will become the only small forward on the roster.
