The player that the Orlando Magic wants to sign to form their 'Big Three'

Facing the offseason, the president of Orlando Magic confirmed that the team will seek offensive talent to add to its roster. In the 2025 NBA Playoffs, the franchise was eliminated by the Boston Celtics 4-1 due to the fact that all the weight of the attack fell on Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner.

The Magic have one of the best defenses in the entire NBA, and it feels like they are just one good move away in the market from being able to compete head-to-head against the best. According to the NBA Rumors by Marc Stein of The Stein Line, Anfernee Simons is that move.

"Following their defeat in the first round of the playoffs against the Celtics, Orlando seeks to go beyond defensive toughness. One projected target for the Magic is the shooting guard of the Portland Trail Blazers, Anfernee Simons," said Stein.

Simons has one season left on his contract for $27.7 million, so his arrival should be through a trade. Undoubtedly, his addition would be key for Banchero and Wagner, as they would find offensive support while on defense everything would continue to revolve around Jalen Suggs.
