A bit on Aaron Gordon

"The Immediate Outlook for the Orlando Magic" -- Brendon Kleen/Upside and Motor

His take on AG: "Aaron Gordon is a few dozen buckets of fun. He lit the NBA and the city of Toronto on fire in the dunk contest this year, and is realizing his potential as maybe just someone who doesn’t shoot very much. The dude had a 17.0 PER this year behind much-improved rebounding and scoring numbers. His pogo stick style bodes well next to a guy like Vucevic as he can cover up quite a few mistakes every night defensively, and should be able to switch onto guards better than most bigs. Gordon’s development is still the most important thing going forward for the Magic and if he can produce efficiently on both ends, the whole thing works a lot better. And don’t rule that shot out because of two years’ worth of tries. He’s flashed it at every level."
