Entering this season, Aaron Gordon was at the center of a lot of attention for the team.
The now-24-year-old forward had a strong season where he continued to show growth with his offensive game, established himself as the team’s best ball container and defender and improved his playmaking. At a certain point, the team seemed to be betting Aaron Gordon to do more for the team.
In a playoff series where the whole Orlando Magic team struggled, Gordon came out strongest. He did admirably trying to contain Kawhi Leonard and led the team in scoring with some big performances to keep the Magic competitive in that series.
