The Orlando Magic have pulled rookie shooting guard Jalen Suggs from the Las Vegas Summer League after he sustained a thumb sprain against the Boston Celtics.
Just as the right fit on draft night could help jump-start an NBA player's career, the wrong one could delay or derail his development. Five first-round rookies might soon be wishing they were selected by different teams.
