ORLANDO – When Orlando Magic coach Steve Clifford approached Jonathon Simmons about the prospect of moving him from shooting guard to the team’s backup point guard position, the four-year NBA veteran didn’t have second of trepidation and responded with a rather blunt answer.
``Just get me on the floor,’’ Simmons said of the switch.
Looking to stabilize the Magic’s somewhat shaky bench corps and add a feature that will help the team get to the rim and get to the free throw line more, Clifford turned to Simmons in place of Jerian Grant.
