Elfrid Payton is a sneaky Rookie of the Year candidate, Nikola Vucevic only filmed a reasonably priced extension and the Orlando Magic’s defense has allowed a highly stingy 97.2 points per 100 possessions during preseason play, based on RealGM.com.
You’re able to correctly cite how the Magic are such sound statistical stoppers since their preseason schedule comprised the hapless Sixers and Indiana Pacers, but know this: You’re no fun at parties.
Also decidedly unfun: Victor Oladipo’s being sidelined for a little while with a horrible injury.
Oct. 23 the group’s official launch relayed the information that was buzz-killing:
Orlando Magic guard Victor Oladipo is going to probably be out indefinitely after suffering a facial fracture in practice Thursday, General Manager Rob Hennigan declared today.
Oladipo, who was evaluated Thursday afternoon, will undergo a corrective procedure. He had been hurt after taking an elbow during a practice drill.
Oladipo, last year’s lottery pick and someone the Magic hoped would take a jump this season, was already battling a terrible knee during the preseason. Neither he nor Orlando needed this.
Seems like Payton will get an opportunity to prove himself. That is good.
Seems like Ben Gordon is in the combination to start at guard. That great.
Hurry back, Victor.
