Mario Hezonja has played up-and-down all season, but he's getting better when it matters.
Continuing to look for their "go-to" guy, someone they could groom and hopefully turn into a superstar, the Orlando Magic turned to Croatian wing Mario Hezonja in last June's NBA Draft. Hezonja, who had been playing professionally in Spain since he was 11, was touted as a highly talented offensive player, with a brash personalty.
Through three quarters of his rookie season, Hezonja has been somewhat of a disappointment for the Magic, struggling to get on the court consistently, and not always giving the team the minutes they needed on a night-to-night basis.
