"I just feel for Magic," Fox explained. "I saw the emotion and I saw the love he has for this organization and the difficulty that decision was for him."
Reports indicated that Magic hadn't committed all of his energy to the Lakers and that it was starting to affect the franchise. The Lakers struggled this season and missed the playoffs, despite having LeBron James. Fox said Magic probably knew it wasn't working anymore and felt like he had to make the change.
"I think ya gotta be true to the core of what makes you who you are," Fox said. "If he was losing that fire and losing some of that fuel that makes him go and to be who he is then its a disservice to the Lakers for him to stay there and be in that space."
