We’ve followed Joe Crawford for the past week as he fought for a spot on a roster during the regular season. He couldn’t have put himself in better position. Most of the spotlight was on Daniel Orton going into the Magic’s summer schedule, but after the game 1 and game 2 disappointments, the focus seemed to shift to Crawford in game 3, 4 and 5. Just in case you didn’t hear, Orton didn’t do well in those games either.[PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]
In game 1, Crawford scored 10 points but seemed a little bit timid with the ball. 10 points wasn’t a bad outing, but he knew that he could be more aggressive and that was the general theme of the messages he received on Twitter as well. Crawford did not play in game 2 (coaches decision, it’s common in the summer league) and apparently took that time to reflect on game 1 and make some changes.
When Orlando faced New Jersey in game 3, Crawford was red hot and scored a team high 29 points. That was the break out performance that he needed to give him time in the final games when he scored 17 and 15 points. Although the Magic only won one game, Crawford had a winning streak with his team and hopefully the coaching staff. We’re hopeful to see Crawford land a spot on the roster during the regular season.
