The Orlando Magic have completed two free-agent signings in 2017, but still have a major need to address: backup center. The only true bigs on the roster following their decision to waive Stephen Zimmerman are Bismack Biyombo and Nikola Vucevic. Thus it should come as no surprise that, according to David Pick, the club held a “face to face meeting” with Marreese Speights recently.
Speights, 29, is coming off a solid season with the Los Angeles Clippers, with whom he averaged 8.7 points and 4.5 rebounds in just 15.
