Franz Wagner’s Summer TRANSFORMATION Underway | Magic’s Shooting Woes Over?
Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner has begun preparations for Eurobasket and he has previewed what he has worked on in the three months since the Magic’s season ended.
The big thing is obviously his shooting after another season shooting worse than 30 percent from three. He is indeed focused on that as part of his offseason work. But he is also working ot diversify his game.
It all goes on display at Eurobasket.
Wagner’s shooting improvement will play a big role for the Magic. But so too will Desmond Bane’s presence. He is a different kind of shooter than what the Magic have had for the last few years.

When he came back from his oblique tear, he had the hitch
Franz shot 29.5% on 3 pts. Paolo shot 32%. THATS “can’t shoot at all for Franz?
Who plays the other teams best player on Defense? Franz. Who brings the play up the court, and sets the offense? Franz. Franz plays point guard for the Magic at 6’10. Paolo is not a good ball Handler. Franz is our best Defender- He plays the best player on the other team, every game. Paolo is an average defender at best. Yet you think 2.5% difference makes everything about Franz shooting?
And why wouldn’t DaSilva make the team? He can actually play basketball. Jett Howard can’t play at all, yet they keep him eating up a roster spot.
Franz need to work on his post game and mid game.. where he shows potential dominance
If Franz becomes the shooter we all believe he should be, this team will be especially dangerous and serious contenders soon. A dude shooting as high % as he does for free throws should not be shooting this poorly from three.
Goga wasn't the same after the concussion
Love that guy
Ig Goga can hit 2 or 3 threes a game then WCJ is going to the bench.
Great show Philip.
