Watching Victor Oladipo rise to stardom got me thinking: How will Oladipo stack up against the greatest shooting guards in Orlando Magic history? Well, to answer that, we have to know who those greats are.

Although he was not a starter most of the time, Dooling was a key part of the second golden era for the Magic. His do-everything persona was the perfect fit for those Stan Van Gundy coached teams.

Redick started out slow, but he emerged as one of the NBA's best sixth men. He especially came into his own during Orlando's 2009 Finals run, and his game has only gotten better since then.

Scott was a small forward, but he spent a lot of time as the backup shooting guard, and boy was he good at shooting the ball. In fact, "3-D" still holds the NBA record for most three-pointers made in a game at 11.

Anderson was the Magic's first ever draft pick, and he went on to have a great career in Orlando. Although he would play elsewhere at the twilight of his career, Anderson was always loyal to Orlando and will always be "Mr. Magic."

McGrady will forever be known as the Magic's greatest offensive weapon. He was a player who could do everything and often did. He blossomed into a superstar in Orlando, and fans will never forgive the GM (who shall remain nameless) for trading him away for scraps.
