It has been written in these digital pages and many more besides that the Orlando Magic are a very young team.
They have six players 25 years old or younger, and just two over 30 in C.J. Watson and Channing Frye, each of whom are only 31 and 32 respectively. Hardly well-weathered dinosaurs.
A term thrown around the league very often is “veteran leadership.” The concept of more experienced players coming in and sharing their hard-earned secrets with the youth of today, to be a steady hand in choppy waters, and more often than not implement rookie pranks.
