I’ve identified Orlando’s Mo Bamba as my prime target for Houston in free agency. I think the writing on the wall is for Bamba with the Magic. His jersey number, 5, has already been given to Paolo Banchero, the first overall pick. Wendell Carter recently signed an extension. There’s a lot of length in Orlando’s forecourt already. Adding Bamba to next season’s group, which already looks so busy, is difficult. At 24, Bamba still fits into Houston’s youthful timeline. He was a surprisingly effective floorspacer last season, shooting an impressive 38.1 percent from behind the arch on four tries per game. His rim protection is questionable at times, but he’s still developing and was better than anyone on Houston’s roster in that area last season (though that’s not saying much). Bamba is already sparking interest from a slew of teams ahead of Thursday’s free agency — including Houston, Chicago and Orlando, sources said.† -through the athletic / June 29, 2022
