Orlando Magic General Manager Rob Hennigan addressed the media Wednesday morning leading up to the 2016 NBA Draft, but did little to offer insight into the Magic’s plans.
“There is a lot of parity in this draft, at least from our view there isn’t a ton of separation between a group of 20-30 guys,” said Hennigan. “You all could make an argument for or against each player so it is very clustered in that way. We see that as a positive but it also makes it a little more challenging based on where we are picking.”
Hennigan went on to say that the Magic are entertaining trade talks, as discussions are a part of his job. “It’s highly likely that we will continue to have discussions up to the draft and during the draft. I just can’t say with any certainty if those talks will produce anything fruitful.”
Names being bandied about as potential picks include Kentucky’s Skal Labissiere, Deyonta Davis of Michigan State, Utah’s Jakob Pertel and Marquette’s Henry Ellenson.
