Mario Hezonja key to Orlando Magic’s Future Prospects
The continued development, or lack thereof, of Mario Hezonja is the determining factor on how long the Orlando Magic rebuild will take.
The Orlando Magic have been showing progress since they changed their lineup and went to a smaller lineup. Their offensive efficiency has improved and the team’s record seems to be taking a turn for the better.
But things are not perfect. The Magic still sometimes struggle to score in the half court. The team needs to develop or find a go-to scorer.
They hoped by now to have one on their roster. They had three straight years with top-five picks.
Originally Mario Hezonja was drafted for that very purpose.
