Everything about Arron Afflalo’s return to the Orlando Magic is a bit of a surprise.
Afflalo had a fairly productive year last year with the Sacramento Kings, averaging 8.4 points per game and shooting 41.1 percent from beyond the arc. All this in his fewest minutes since his time with the Detroit Pistons. His numbers dropped per 36 minutes too. All suggesting he is beginning to slow down.
Afflalo still is a useful player, but it was surprising to see him go only for a minimum contract. And that it was a minimum contract with the Magic was more surprising.
