Not many people remember this fact, but the Orlando Magic went out and tried to form the first “superteam” in the summer of 2000, signing Grant Hill and Tracy McGrady in free agency. The Magic signed Hill to a $92 million contract just weeks after he broke his ankle in the playoffs as a member of the Detroit Pistons.

That injury would endure multiple complications, and be subject to numerous questions about whether the Magic mishandled Hill’s recovery. Hill played in only 57 games for the Magic over the next four years, but that ankle led to a myriad of other related injuries for Hill during the latter portion of his tenure in Orlando.
