The 25-year-old was selected sixth overall in the 2019 NBA draft out of Texas Tech.

His rights were traded on draft night (via the Phoenix Suns) to the Minnesota Timberwolves, where he spent the first two seasons of his career.

During his rookie season, Culver averaged 9.2 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game while shooting 40.4 percent from the field and 29.9 percent from three-point range in 63 games (35 starts).

Considering the Timberwolves gave up the rights to Cameron Johnson and Dario Saric, this turned out to be a very bad trade for the franchise.

After his two years in Minnesota, Culver spent time with the Grizzlies and Memphis Hawks.

His career averages are 6.5 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game, while shooting 40.1 percent from the field and 27.6 percent from three-point range in 144 games.

While there are no details on his contract with Orlando yet, it’s fair to assume that it’s likely a 10-year deal.

Therefore, Culver could end up playing for the Magic’s G League affiliate next season.
