The Orlando Magic seem to be the winner of the 2022 offseason, because they selected Paulo Banchero with the No. 1 pick, which allowed the Magic lineup to accumulate a bunch of outstanding young players, and they have young players with very good height. Therefore, the US media listed the top five lineups of the Magic 2022-23 season. How strong is this lineup?
1. Jonathan Isaac (6 feet 11 inches)
has career averages of 9.3 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 1.1 steals, and 1.5 blocks per game. 24-year-old Jonathan Isaac is 2.11 meters tall and has played in the league for 5 seasons. He was out of action for two seasons due to injuries. It's hard to say whether he can come back healthy next season. If he doesn't come back, the team will be ready to sell him.
2. Franz Wagner (6 feet 10 inches)
has career averages of 15.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 0.9 steals, and 0.4 blocks per game. 20-year-old Franz Wagner is 2.06 meters tall. He only played in the league for one season. However, there are recent rumors that his 25-year-old brother, who is 2.11 meters tall, may be sent away by the Magic.
3. Paul Banchero (6 feet 10 inches)
As the No. 1 pick in the 2022 Magic draft, 19-year-old Paul Banchero is 2.08 meters tall. Paulo Banchero can dribble, pass and shoot from mid- to long-range. He is like an all-around center in the new era.
4. Bol Bol (7 feet 2 inches)
has career averages of 2.7 points, 1.2 rebounds, 0.3 assists, 0.1 steals, and 0.3 blocks per game. He averaged only 2.1 shots per game, which is already a very good scoring average. The 22-year-old Bolbol is 2.18 meters tall. He has played in NBA for 3 seasons, but has played for four teams.
Mohamed Bamba (7 feet 0 inches)
has career averages of 7.7 points, 6.1 rebounds, 0.9 assists, 0.4 steals, and 1.4 blocks per game. He is 2.13 meters tall and has been in the league for 4 seasons. At the age of 24, he has finally grown from a backup center to a starting center.
