Ranking Most Significant Trades in Magic History
1 / 11Honorable Mention: Acquiring Elfrid Payton from the Sixers (June, 2014) Josh Cohen’s Analysis: It’s impossible to truly assess the trade that sent Payton to the Magic this soon, but he has quickly shown he has a ton of potential to evolve into an elite point guard. Until Dario Saric, whose draft rights were dealt to the Sixers, comes to the U.S., we can’t determine who got the better end of the trade. For now, though, it appears Payton will be a key member of Orlando’s core for years to come.
