In this story:


1. HEAT GUARD MAX STRUS TO MAGIC? "According to Yahoo! Sports, the Magic is "in play" to sign Miami Heat shooting guard Max Strus in free agency."

2. LAKERS' AUTIN REAVES TO ORLANDO? “In his second year, Reaves averaged 13 points per game, shot just under 40 percent from beyond the arc, and made a name for himself as a connector and initiator in the playoffs. He played alongside LeBron James, Anthony Davis and D'Angelo Russell, yet he was the name making plays from scratch and stepping up in the clutch."

3. NEW G LEAGUE COACH “Dylan has done a tremendous job in regard to player development in his role as an assistant coach with the Magic,” Weltman said in a statement. “He also brings past G League experience and we look forward to his continued leadership and seamless connectivity between the Osceola and Orlando Magic.”

4. DEXTER DENNIS SUMMER LEAGUE "Dennis' experience came in handy for the Aggies, as he maintained poise better than anybody during some of the Aggies' bigger games against top-ranked Alabama or highly-touted Tennessee."

5. SUMMER LEAGUE COUNTDOWN The Orlando Magic is nine days away from the Las Vegas Summer League, where rookies Anthony Black and Jett Howard will debut for the team. Coverage begins on July 8 at 5:30 p.m. on ESPN.
