Brandon Bass to Orlando Magic.

The Magic have expressed interest in signing free agent Brandon Bass, who is seen as a young, rising power forward.
Bass' agent, Tony Dutt, said Wednesday he did speak with the Magic.
"Yes, I did speak to (Magic General Manager) Otis Smith and they did show interest in Brandon," Dutt said.
Bass, 24, a former second-round pick out of LSU, has averaged 6.9 points and 3.9 rebounds in his four-year career.
He played the last two seasons with the Dallas Mavericks, and averaged 8.5 points and 4.5 rebounds in about 20 minutes per game. He played his first two seasons with New Orleans/Oklahoma City.
Perhaps the Magic might have an edge over other suitors for Bass.
They took care of another Dutt client two summers ago, signing Rashard Lewis to a six-year, $118-million contract.

Magic are doing a job here. They need to improve to continue to stick with the benchmark in the East.
