Tyler Harvey faces long road to make the Orlando Magic
Tyler Harvey spent last season developing his game in the D-League. Harvey likely will participate in Summer League with hopes of landing on the main roster.
Tyler Harvey was drafted out of Eastern Washington as the country’s leading scorer with 22.9 points per game last year. He joined six other players to have multiple collegiate seasons with at least 20 points per game on a 60 percent true shooting percentage (Stephen Curry, Ryan Toolson, Ricky Minard, Kevin Martin, Ike Diogu and Doug McDermott) since 2000.
The Orlando Magic though elected to place him in the D-League to polish his game for the 2016 season, thinking he could grow into a contributor for seasons to come.
