Orlando Magic coach Frank Vogel surprised many when he decided to start Jeff Green at shooting guard, having to deal with a rash of injuries to the guard spot. Facing a relatively big backcourt featuring Dwyane Wade and Jimmy Butler, Jeff Green figured to match up better than going with C.J. Watson or even Mario Hezonja.
It was not a guaranteed long-term solution for the Magic. It is still unclear what direction the Magic will go as they play the Boston Celtics’ Isaiah Thomas, Jaylen Brown and Jae Crowder.
