The Magic have been trying to find their starting point guard for the last three years and it appears Jalen Suggs has emerged to give them their best shot at positional sustainability. That leaves Anthony as the odd man out, while serving as a valuable trade chip to improve the Magic elsewhere. He can be inconsistent, but he plays with a certain grit that makes him explosive, given the right matchup, with a higher ceiling than his pops, Greg, who played with the Knicks in the 1990s.
Best fits: Golden State, New York, Los Angeles Lakers, Miami (Since losing Gabe Vincent in free agency, the Heat need a desperate upgrade over Kyle Lowry, who showed he’s much better used as a bench stabilizer last postseason. Anthony brings dawg defense and upside to the Heat starting five, moving Kyle Lowry to the bench and giving Jimmy Butler a viable cutter and dogged defender at the point.)
