ESPN Sources: The Orlando Magic are promoting Anthony Parker to GM, replacing longtime league executive John Hammond who’s decided to transition into a senior advisory role.
Surprise semi-retirement move from Hammond.
Anthony Parker did make the Lakeland team a G-League champion, so that's a better record already than most people out there can show.
Also, some promotions in the structure, namely Pete D'Alessandro moving into VP of Basketball Operations. I have no opinion of him in this role, but I'll say I was not happy when we hired him into our org based on his record with the Kings and how their fan base celebrated getting rid of him.
