Orlando Magic center Mo Bamba is having the best season of his career as a full-time starter during a contract season.
Bamba, one of the league’s top shot blockers, is averaging career-highs in points (11.2), rebounds (9.4), blocks (2.2), and steals (1.1) per game. The 23-year-old center is eligible for restricted free agency this summer if Orlando extends a $10.1 million qualifying offer.
“I think his ceiling is beyond high,” Magic coach Jamahl Mosley told HoopsHype. “If he continues to dominate the simple things and control what he can control, which he has been doing lately, I think the ceiling is really extremely high for him.”
Bamba discussed his career journey thus far, the difference playing for coach Mosley following Steve Clifford, the outlook for the Magic, and his free agency future this summer with HoopsHype.
