Magic match Bulls’ offer, re-sign J.J. Redick..

One of the key members of Orlando’s bench will stay put for now, as the Magic matched the Bulls’ offer to free-agent guard J.J. Redick with a 3 year, $19 million deal.
This move virtually ensures that the Magic will not be able to bring back free-agent forward Matt Barnes, who is deciding between Boston & Miami.
Redick averaged a career-best 9.6 points per game & shot over 40% from three-point range for the first time ever last season, as he could wind up becoming a starter as Vince Carter is entering the final season of his 2-year deal with the team.
