During that same appearance on ESPN’s “Jalen and Jacoby,” Terry Rozier opened himself up to joining any team willing to allow him to be himself.

"“Just looking for a team that’s going to let me be myself, a team that treats me like family and just go from there,” Rozier continued, via NJ.com.  “I’m not a hard person to work with.  I’m a team-first type of guy.  Whoever I decide to make that decision with, I’m pretty sure it’s going to be great.”"

What Terry Rozier needs is a young team on the rise that plays hard.  The Orlando Magic fits the mold of that team and happens to need a starting point guard with some winning experience.

They did trade for 2017 No. 1 overall pick Markelle Fultz, but with his shooting ability in disarray, Rozier is the type of playmaking, scoring guard who could flourish down in Orlando playing alongside young players like Aaron Gordon, Jonathan Isaac, Evan Fournier and Mohamed Bamba.

Actually, adding Terry Rozier to that mix would make the Orlando Magic one exciting young team.  This possibility depends on how the chips fall with Kyrie Irving and the Boston Celtics.  If he ends up with the Brooklyn Nets, that would leave another point guard in D’Angelo Russell available, who the Magic also reportedly have a ton of interest in.
