Magic Told Redick They Are Not Shopping Him

Magic guard J.J. Redick says that he has been told that the Magic “are not actively trying to move” him, according to Brian Schmitz of the Orlando Sentinel.  Of course, a number of teams are inquiring on the shooting guard and Orlando is certainly listening to offers as the deadline approaches.

There are a number of suitors for Redick including the Celtics, BucksWolves, Pacers, Knicks, and Bulls.  With the Magic headed for the lottery this season, it makes sense that Orlando would consider trades for him.  The 28-year-old is earning $6MM in the final year of his contract.

Orlando is reportedly looking for a package of expiring contracts and a future first-round pick.  A team like the Bucks could conceivably put together an appealing offer with Beno Udrih's expiring contract, a pick, and a young talent like Tobias Harris.
