I don't know about a quick turnaround by the Magic, but that team really had to be reset. I haven't studied a lot on the '21 draft but it certainly looks like after 5 (6 if you like Kuminga), the draft really falls off. Maybe there are players who will rise, but I think the top 5 (maybe 6) all can develop into at least a top 3 player on a good team. Will they all reach that level, probably not. But I think getting in that top 5 is going to be important for the bad teams (With picks 1 and 2 being maybe a level above 3-5).
As far as trading Vuc, they really need to hope those picks from Chicago are late lottery picks at least. We will see.
