25. Orlando Magic (via Toronto Raptors)- Terrance Ferguson- SG- Adelaide (International)

The Magic are back on the clock at pick 25.  Orlando will probably be searching for a shooter after finishing 29th in three-point percentage last season.  Their lack of floor spacing hurt them.

Orlando also needs some wing help.  Mario Hezonja looks like a bust leaving just Evan Fournier and Terrance Ross to man the wings if Jeff Green and Jodie Meeks depart in free agency.  Their selection of Isaac helps, but they still lack depth.

Why Terrance Ferguson?

Terrance Ferguson is a noted shot up shooter according to DraftExpress.  The Magic need a two guard that can shoot.

Ferguson is still just 19 years old from Tulsa despite traveling to Australia last season to play for Adelaide.  He has room to grow into something more than a spot up shooter, but I think he fills a limited role for Orlando as a rookie.  A good find with a late first round pick.
