If you ask any Orlando Magic fan what they think the team is missing the most, the answer will always be the same. The point guard position has long been an issue for the Magic, and the team is currently starting 31-year-old D.J. Augustin, who until this season had been a back up for his entire career.

There are currently a number of promising young point guards that are available around the league such as the Boston Celtic's Terry Rozier, however, the Magic are still unlikely to sign a new playmaker ahead of the deadline. The franchise has been extremely reluctant to make a move all season long, and it seems as though the Magic will now wait until the summer, as adding a point guard now is unlikely to propel Orlando into the 2019 playoffs.
