Orlando Magic Rumors: Tyronn Lue backs David Griffin as rumors grow

The Orlando Magic’s search for a new general manager or president of basketball operations continues largely behind the scenes.

This past weekend saw a flurry of reports about the Magic’s intentions leak out and one surprising rumor does not seem to be going away.

It was somewhat surprising when Steve Kyler of Basketball Insiders first reported the Magic were interested in pursuing Cleveland Cavaliers general manager David Griffin. Adrian Wojnarowski of the Vertical confirmed it a few weeks later. And then this weekend, Brian Windhorst of ESPN.com reported the Magic intended to offer Griffin the lead job.
