Josh Robbins: Steve Clifford said Wes Iwundu “is as good an on-ball defender right now as we’ve had. The second-best on-ball defender that we’ve had has been Evan Fournier.”
John Denton: With G Jonathon Simmons unavailable because of a death in the family, @Orlando Magic will activate rookie F Melvin Frazier Jr. for tonight’s game at @Philadelphia 76ers. Wes Iwundu will get the backup minutes at SF and SG. Simmons will rejoin ORL in Boston on Sunday.
Josh Robbins: The Magic will hold out Mo Bamba and Jonathan Isaac from their summer league finale tonight, a team official said. Also out: Wes Iwundu & Melvin Frazier Jr. Bamba and Isaac were held out from last night’s game following seven practices & three prior games since July 3.
