Elfrid Payton is a sneaky Rookie of the Year candidate, Nikola Vucevic only filmed a reasonably priced extension and the Orlando Magic’s defense has allowed an exceptionally stingy 97.2 points per 100 possessions during preseason play, according to RealGM.com.
You can accurately cite how the Magic have been such sound statistical stoppers since their preseason schedule comprised the hapless Sixers and Indiana Pacers, but understand this: You’re no fun at parties.
Also decidedly unfun: Victor Oladipo’s being sidelined for a little while with a horrible injury.
Oct. 23, the official launch of the team relayed the information that was buzz-killing:
Orlando Magic guard Victor Oladipo will be out indefinitely after suffering a facial break in clinic Thursday, General Manager Rob Hennigan declared now.
Oladipo, who was assessed Thursday afternoon, will experience a corrective procedure. He had been hurt after taking an elbow during a practice drill.
Oladipo, a year’s lottery pick and someone the Magic expected would require a jump this year, was battling a bad knee during the preseason. Neither he nor Orlando needed this.
Seems like Payton is going to get a chance to show himself instantly. That is good.
Looks like Ben Gordon is in the mix to start at guard. That good.
Back, Victor.
