Moving on from lack of shooting ability, the Magic also don’t generate a ton of easy points. They sit 28th in free-throw attempt rate, a familiar position as the team has finished in the bottom 10 in this metric every season since 2012-13. Drawing fouls is a repeatable skill, which, unfortunately for the Magic, no one on the roster really possesses. Of the team’s high rotation players last season, Aaron Gordon got to the line most frequently with 4.6 FTA/100 possessions played, 176th of 299 players appearing in at least 50 games last year.
