Following a promising season, most analysts around the league believe that the Magic will focus on developing their young core rather than making major acquisitions. However, Steve Kyler of Basketball Insiders is reporting that the Magic hold an interest in Kemba Walker of the Charlotte Hornets.

All things being equal -- Not sure there will be much of a market for DeMarcus (Cousins)... as for Kemba (Walker). I know the Magic, Pacers, Knicks, and Lakers have an interest... Charlotte still wants him and can now Supermax him.

Walker has spent his entire eight-year career with the Hornets, although the 29-year-old has been to the playoffs just twice. During the 2018-19 season, he averaged 25.6 points, 5.9 assists and 4.4 rebounds per game.

Walker will hit free agency later this summer and is eligible for a supermax deal after being named to the All-NBA Third Team.
