After re-signing third-string center Adonal Foyle yesterday, the Orlando Magic are likely finished making moves this summer. Foyle brings their roster to 13 players, the NBA's minimum, and it's highly unlikely that the Magic sign anyone else--even for the minimum salary, as Foyle and Jason Williams took--given how much money they've already taken on this summer. Barring a training-camp invitee's blowing everyone away in the preseason, this is it. Your 2009/2010 Orlando Magic, presented in the form of a depth chart.

There you have 6 bigs (with one, Rashard Lewis, able to move to the wing if necessary), 4 wings (5, if one counts Lewis), and 3 point guards. If there's a truly glaring hole, one which would prevent the Magic from winning a championship, I don't see it.
Then again, I've been wrong before. Which position--or positions--should the Magic address, via either a trade or free-agent signing for the minimum? For reference, here's a list of available free agents; bear in mind that the Magic can only sign players to minimum-salary deals.
Have at it in the comments.
