The ping pong balls did not fall in the Orlando Magic’sfavor. Or did it?
Once again, the Magic had the fifth-best odds of receiving the No.1 pick but fell to the sixth pick in a rather deep draft. That would seem like a loss, despite the potential to draft a pretty solid player. Orlando has plenty of options to choose from at No. 6 in what many experts consider a deep draft.
But at the sixth selection, the Magic’s decision very well could be a rather simple one: Pick the best point guard available.
