Franz Wagner understands the SECRET in EuroBasket final | Tristan da Silva is READY for the season

The Orlando Magic's players shone bright at EuroBasket, showing something that they can each bring back to the NBA when the season begins in two weeks.

Franz Wagner's final was a disappointment at first blush because of how uninvolved he was in the second half. But taking that step back also displayed that he understood what he needs to do to win and how he can help his team win. That is actually surprising maturity for a player in a pressure situation.

That will be valuable for him as the Magic pursue a playoff spot.

Role players Tristan da Silva and Goga Bitadze also thrived for their teams. And they showed they will be able to contribute at a high level for the Magic when the season begins.
