Plus, four other players blossoming into superstars, why it's too early to give up on Kevin Garnett and the games we're most excited to watch this week. O’Quinn is out with an ankle sprain, while Harris is making his return from a severe ankle sprain suffered in training camp.
Harris missed the first 12 games of the season. After being acquired from the Milwaukee Bucks via trade in 2012-13, he appeared in 27 games for Orlando and averaged 17.3 points and 8.5 rebounds per game.
Magic coach Jacque Vaughn will now need to find a role for Harris, something he was still wondering about in the middle of the preseason. Harris could play either forward spot after gaining weight this offseason, but the starting small forward position in Orlando has seemingly been a lock for fellow youngster Moe Harkless.
