Technically a center, we have to include Dwight Howard to this list because he is the greatest Magic player in history. Despite the way he forced himself out of Orlando, Howard had his best years with the team from 2004 to 2012. He dominated on both ends of the floor, making the All-NBA First Team five times and winning the Defensive Player of the Year Award from 2009 to 2011.

Howard led the Magic to an NBA Finals appearance in 2009 but they fell to the Los Angeles Lakers in five games. He might still be hated by Magic fans but there is no denying that Howard was at his best in Orlando. Howard is the franchise leader in points, rebounds, and blocks.

Honorable Mention: Forward – Grant Hill

Grant Hill was in Orland for six years but he never played a full 82-game season. His Magic career was derailed by several ankle injuries but it did not stop him from being one of the best players to ever play for the franchise. Hill was a two-time All-Star while with the Magic.
