The Orlando Magic in my opinion are a team that has lost all hope. Dwight Howard feels like he is alone and his relationship with his coach, Stan Van Gundy, is not the greatest. The Magic did not haven a very good season but they did not have an awful season. They rank 21st in points per game with 94.2, 13th in rebounds per game with 42.5 and 20th in assists per game with 20. Having there ok season they are projected to have two picks. One in the  mid dirst round and one in the mid second round. With all of the rumors of Dwight Howard leaving they should go for a big man in the first round. With there very low assists per game they should go for a guard in the second round. If I was the general manager for the Magic my first pick would be John Henson of North Carolina or trade up for Terence Jones. Henson could be a huge force for them. He is a beast standing at 6-10 and weighing in at 220 pounds. This year, in the NCAA he averaged over 13 points per game and over ten rebounds per game. If Howard stays they could be a great combo down low. For thier second pick they should try and take Kim English of Missouri or J'Covan Brown of Texas. Either of these guys could come off the bench for Jameer Nelson and do a solid job. The Magic will not be too good for a couple of years but they should really try to take advantage of this draft. Howard is alone on an island but after this draft he could have a friend.
