Yeah, it's a learning moment for the fediverse and Lemmy in particular.

You know what would really trigger those folks? Create a Lemmy.trotsky, get half of lemmy.ml to migrate to .Trotsky and see them foaming. Ahah

ESPN Sources: The Orlando Magic are promoting Anthony Parker to GM, replacing longtime league executive John Hammond who’s decided to transition into a senior advisory role. (twitter.com)
 

Surprise semi-retirement move from Hammond. Anthony Parker did make the Lakeland team a G-League champion, so that's a better record already than most people out there can show.

Also, some promotions in the structure, namely Pete D'Alessandro moving into VP of Basketball Operations. I have no opinion of him in this role, but I'll say I was not happy when we hired him into our org based on his record with the Kings and how their fan base celebrated getting rid of him.

The Orlando #Magic have guaranteed the contracts of guards Gary Harris and Markelle Fultz for the 2023-24 season, the @orlandosentinel learned via league sources on Friday (twitter.com)
 

No Bol guarantees yet, as the final day for the decision on him has moved forward. We have a logjam at the guards position, but I don't see that necessarily as a bad thing in today's league.
