There was a debate going among Orlando Magic fans during a game a few weeks ago as the Magic were trying to find their footing and cement their identity.
An injury had already forced a change to their starting lineup as Jonathan Isaac missed time with an ankle injury. Coach Steve Clifford opted to start Wesley Iwundu instead of elevating Jonathon Simmons or Terrence Ross into the lineup. There was no reason to disrupt the team’s normal rotations.
To that point, Wesley Iwundu had played very little.
