Orlando Magic draft pick Anthony Black was a standout in the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas. He discussed what he's going to bring to his new team his rookie year.
Expectations will be high for Black to live up to his sixth overall selection.
"There’s not really a lot of pressure coming from myself because of what we have," Black said."I know having good players around me is going to make it a little easier. I’m really just trying to come in and learn as much as I can and just try to enjoy it and have fun with it because this is what everybody dreams of.

Strong defense and rebounding aren't the only qualities Black wants to bring to the table this season. "I’m trying to solidify myself as a solid two-way player in the league. I’m really all about winning," he said."So, hopefully come in and win some games. But, if nothing else, develop, work on my craft, get a lot stronger and take a big step forward going into year two."When game day rolls around, Black uses music to hype him up.
"I listen to music pretty much all day, from the time I wake up, running errands, just chilling at the house. Going to the gym, of course, working out," he said."I think it’s just a pretty cool chance to share what you’re listening to and engage and interact with people."
