Cole Anthony Rumors
Anthony, who was drafted by Orlando 15th overall in 2020, couldn’t believe what happened when Magic president of basketball operations Jeff Weltman called him. “I remember my agent called me; I remember talking with Jeff, and I was just like, ‘Dang, is this real?'” the 6-foot-2 guard said. “I remember that whole week; it was just crazy. “I’ve been here five years, haven’t played for another team, was drafted here, so it’s something for me that definitely is bittersweet and I’m going to miss it.”
“I look at it as a great opportunity to enter another team where they have a playoff pedigree and a championship pedigree,” Anthony said about joining the Bucks. “They’ve won a ‘chip there. I just want to get in there, contribute and do whatever I can for the team. I want to be a part of winning.”
