In this story:


1. BRANDON MILLER TO MAGIC?

In DK Nation's latest mock draft, it used Tankathon to create an order, which granted the Magic the No. 3 pick along with No. 11. With that No. 3 pick, the Magic selected Alabama small forward Brandon Miller.

2. ORLANDO GRIZZLIES?

"The Orlando Magic should be looking at the Grizzlies as a potential blueprint to build its team in the coming years, while recognizing both the successes and flaws."

3. SETH CURRY TO MAGIC?

"Curry, who turns 33 this summer, is entering free agency after making just over $8 million and averaging 9.2 points this past season with the Nets. Even though he is getting older, Curry is still a strong shooter from distance, something the Magic could use more of."

4. TUESDAY NIGHT'S GAMES

Atlanta Hawks vs. Boston Celtics, 7:30 p.m. EST, TNT (Celtics lead 3-1)

Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Denver Nuggets, 9:00 p.m. EST, NBA TV (Nuggets lead 3-1)

Los Angeles Clippers vs. Phoenix Suns, 10:00 p.m. EST, TNT (Suns lead 3-1)

5. NBA DRAFT LOTTERY COUNTDOWN

The Magic is 21 days away from the NBA Draft Lottery, where it will be revealed if Orlando will have the opportunity to take Victor Wembanyama with the No. 1 overall pick.
