Magic may be on the verge of signing Warriors' backup PG to offer sheet

Excerpts from an article in Sunday's Orlando Sentinel by Josh Robbins:

The Orlando Magic could be making progress in their search for another backup to starting point guard Jameer Nelson.

The Web site Fanhouse.com is reporting that the Magic are "close" to signing restricted free agent C.J. Watson to an offer sheet.

Watson averaged 9.5 points and 2.7 assists per game and made 40 percent of his 3-point attempts last season for the Golden State Warriors.

The Warriors would have seven days to match any offer sheet Watson signs with the Magic.

In addition to a point guard, the Magic are looking to add another big man and a wing player to their roster.

    Let's see if the Magic can get this done; it would be another nice signing if it does happen.

    Watson's 40% three point shooting would give the Magic yet another long-range weapon.
