ORLANDO – Arron Afflalo is grateful to be back in an environment that means so much to him. His decision this past July to return to Orlando was as much about the people and the community as it was about his excitement to play on a team with so many young and promising players.
Afflalo, who averaged career highs in multiple statistical categories when he was in his prime with the Magic from 2012-14, said right after rejoining the team that the happiest time of his professional life was spent in Orlando.
So, it came as no surprise that the 11-year NBA veteran was delighted to participate in a community event devised to help local youth.
