Orlando Magic giving Mohamed Bamba some more freedom to grow

When Mohamed Bamba is feeling confident and comfortable on the court, it is easy to see and feel. His long arms become menacing at the rim and the potential that made him the sixth overall pick becomes more than apparent.

Early in the fourth quarter with the Orlando Magic already dominating the Chicago Bulls, Shaquille Harrison tried to test the rookie. He took a fast-break drive toward the rim with Mohamed Bamba tracking him.

With a jump and an emphatic swat, Bamba sent the shot careening toward the stands.
