NBA trade deadline: Aaron Gordon, Magic finally parting ways? Warriors, Nuggets, Wolves reportedly interested

Aaron Gordon has spent the entirety of his seven-year career with the Orlando Magic. In his rookie season, they fired coach Jacque Vaughn after a 15-37 start. After they went 35-47 in Gordon's second season, coach Scott Skiles abruptly quit. When Gordon re-signed as a restricted free agent in the summer of 2018, they were coming off a 25-win season under Frank Vogel, and the franchise appeared to be adrift. He agreed to an unconventional contract: four years, $80 million including incentives, with a declining salary -- he made $21.6 million in Year 1 and will make $16.4 million next season. Immediately, this made him a potential trade piece.
