If the Magic are really good and all those picks are in the 20s I guess you can make an argument for it but it seems like a lot. I like Cole Anthony too. A couple more years of control. Good backup PG on a good team.
Quite the move. Magic really going for it. Not sure how well this will work though. I think even with this move, Pacers, Pistons, Knicks, and Cavs are still clearly better than them. But also depends on how much Banchero and Wagner improves next season. Definitely making the East more interesting and competitive.
Having Suggs back will be big too. Even when Wagner and Banchero came back they weren’t the same team without Suggs. I think they will be good but agree they still probably aren’t top 4.
Having seen what happens when the Knicks dump all their #1s for a player (even a great one), I'm not sure the Magic won't regret this unless they go all the way.
Is Bane worth all that?

I think KCP's viewed as a negative asset, so one of those picks is to convince Memphis to take his salary.

Yes, Suggs is also an important piece and having him back will definitely be beneficial to the Magic.

Intelligent draft!
