I tried to assign numbers according to the role I see the players taking on the court, and honoring some of my favorite current and historical Orlando Magic players:

4- My first PG Gino D'Amour wears Scott Skiles number
12 - Stephan will be Dwight Howard-like, plus he's a teenager.
25 - He Yunilan has a pitiful freethrow skill. So did Nick Anderson in the '95 Finals.
32 - Nolan Isaac is pre-knee injury Dave Corzine or Shaq, take your pick.
35 - Though he bangs the boards harder than Ice ever did, Ching 'Mofo' Mofokeng honors Jerry Reynolds's 35.
40 - James Duggan will hopefully never fill out the 40 jersey the way Shawn Kemp did. Yikes.

You can probably guess why certain players wear 23 and 41 tho.

1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are numbers that represent positions...they don't mean that they have to be the jersey numbers. coaches will lapse into those numbers when coaching their players.
