ORLANDO, Fla. — A little after noon on Thursday, Jabari Smith and Orlando Magic coach Jamahl Mosley gave each other a fist bump at the AdventHealth Practice Facility inside Amway Center.
A few seconds later, Mosley, who was speaking with other Magic personnel, patted Smith on his left shoulder as Orlando’s chief communications officer Joel Glass led the former Auburn forward to the reporters waiting to speak with Smith in the practice facility after his pre-draft workout.
It remains to be seen whether a form of that encounter will repeat itself in the future. For that to happen, the Magic would need to select Smith with their No. 1 pick in the June 23 NBA draft.
