The Magic gave up a haul Sunday to add Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane to their young and talented core. In return for the 26-year-old, Memphis received four first-round draft picks, a future pick swap and veterans Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Cole Anthony.

The Celtics selected Bane with the 30th overall pick in the 2020 draft and traded him on draft night for a pair of future second-round picks. Five years later, Bane has established himself as a consistent and efficient scorer, the kind of piece that a playoff team would pay a premium price for as a second or third option.

The Orlando Magic failed to impress in the 2024-25 season, getting knocked out in the first round of the playoffs by the Boston Celtics after finishing with a 41-41 record.
