Hezonja tallied a preseason-best 19 points (6-10 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT) and gathered four boards and two assists over 28 minutes in Wednesday’s win over the Pelicans.

The 20-year-old rookie had gone just 6-for-21 from three-point range over the first six exhibitions, but finally found his touch Thursday. Hezonja isn’t expected to earn a major role off the bench for the Magic in his first NBA season, but his blend of size, shooting ability, and athleticism make him worth stashing in dynasty formats.
