Veteran Robin Lopez looks forward to helping Magic through youth movement
During his introductory Zoom press conference with the Orlando Magic media Wednesday, Robin Lopez referred to himself as a relief pitcher.
The 7-foot, 281-pound Lopez, entering his 14th season, said he is not just in Orlando to help make the Magic’s young centers better but everyone.
“I’ve always like the think of myself as a utility guy. Whatever the teams needs I attempt to fill that role,” said Lopez, 33. “[A relief pitcher isn’t] playing every night, necessarily, but they’re going in there making an impact when the team needs them.”
