A thread of an Orlando Magic rebuild. This could take The Orlando Magic from playoff contender to actual contender. It's far fetched but possible.

Starting Five:
🔹Fultz
🔹Oladipo
🔹Wiggins
🔹AG
🔹Cousins

Stay tuned to find out how I got there.

First let's take a look at the free agent signings. Had to add shooting to the team and some PG depth.

Also had to get a big man whom may be capable of starting.

I decided to keep Gary Clark and MCW.

I signed Cousins, Trey Burk and Gallinari. Details below

Warriors Trade

GSW sends Wiggins and the #2 pick in this year's draft.

Previously I've been aganist this deal but when doing this rebuild it became very apparent that The Magic are spending way too much money to be a fringe playoff team. This deal paved the way to other options
(1/2) Pacers Trade

This one gets dicey. I'd start out by offering The Pacers Fournier and James Ennis (this would be non negotiable) + an Lottery Protected 2021 Pick.
(2/2) Pacers Trade

Let be clear I wouldn't want to give The Pacers an unprotected pick.

If other teams are out bidding us then I would offer up a top 3 protected pick and if I absolutely had to I'd give the unprotected pick. This would be a risky move, but maybe necessary.
The off season moves:

We add 7 players.

Send the this year's pick to GSW in exchange for their 2nd.

Send our 1st round 2021 pick to the Pacers.

Trade Vucevic, Fournier, AL Farouq and James Ennis.

Let Frazier, BJ, Josh, DJ, Wes and Law walk. We'll have roughly 1mill to spend
Your 2021 Orlando Magic.

A few signings would have to be made to bring the roster to 15 (I believe). We'd have about 1mill to sign some D League guys

The ceiling for this team is the Finals

The floor is 8th seed which we are already at
