Complete 2000-2010 Magic Draft Transactions
I wanted to make a contribution to the OPP community, so here it is:
As we look forward to the new season and the draft prospects in both Daniel "Big Dog" Orton & Stanley "The Manley" Robinson (yes, I just made those up), I look back on the last ten years of draftees by the Magic and think 'What draft picks did we have at one point or another and how were they used?'. What I came to find out is that we passed up a lot of different players some better some worst than the picks we evetenually kept. But....hindsight is always 20/20. I noticed that basketball-reference, which offers a plethora of the information supplied below, does have a running list of Magic draft picks. What I wanted to see, however, was a list of everyone associated with the Magic come draft day. So, using various resources, I made one.
Each pick on this list has passed through the hands of Orlando Magic management. Granted, the players picked could have been different should the Magic have drafted them (e.g. higher or lower depending on their standings that year).
A few things worth noting:
1. It's interesting how many picks once held by the Magic ended up coming back. Vince Carter, Matt Barnes, and Keyon Dooling, to name a few, were all at one time Magic draft picks (though Dooling was the only one they actually drafted).
2. It's also interesting to note how many players I've never heard of, and I'm an avid fan. It just goes to show the reality that it is really hard to make it in the NBA.
3. How to read Pick/Draftee Transaction History - The history chronicles the 'origination' (where the pick started) to when the player was drafted. In cases where other teams draft a future Magic player traded on draft day, I have noted the transaction that sent him to our team.
I hope this satisfies your inner NBA nerd.

Good job
Orlando blew a big one on a lot of those.
Nice work.
Please don't simply ignore the stats when making your case, 'cause "...your eyes lie to you sometimes..."

This is very interesting. I wish Orlando invested in more scouting. Look at what #22 CLee did for us...

You can tell by the pattern of transactions of draft picks who was general manager.
It looks like some gms care more about trading their picks, and others about investing into them

I think you’re right on. What’s your take on GM Otis? Traded it one year for Rafer, got CLee one year. Shocked everyone with Orton. Maybe he’s more versatile with his picks?
There is a method to his madness

I hate to nitpick about an excellent and thorough post...
…but it’s Daniel Orton, not Orten.
