JJ won the “Iron Magic” award.
“Just prior to training camp, each Magic player was tested in eight different categories ranging from bench press, vertical leap, 3-minute run, agility and three-quarter-court sprints.”
For the first time JJ won this contest showing everyone what kind of improvement he has been working on since he joined the Magic.
Now we see that improvement in his game where he has become one of Head Coach Stan Van Gundy’s most trusted players. Not only had his shot improved, but his overall game has improved as well.
JJ has become a very good overall team player helping out his teammates on the court with more then just his shooting.
See how he handles this award with his own special humor in this interview:
