It is no secret that Orlando Magic’s front office has an affinity for length.
Magic general manager John Hammond drafted Giannis Antetokounmpo and Thon Maker, both of whom have a 7-foot-3 wingspan, during his tenure as an executive with the Milwaukee Bucks. Then, in Orlando, he has continued to prioritize length by targeting players like Mo Bamba and Jonathan Isaac.
So it was not a surprise when the Magic traded for Bol Bol, a 7-foot-2 former McDonald’s All-American who has a 7-foot-8 wingspan. Bol would make for a fascinating fit alongside Bamba, who has a 7-foot-10 wingspan.
