Like the Magic's other offseason signings - those being Channing Frye and Ben Gordon - point guard Luke Ridnour is a capable three-point shooter.
He's also a fine back-up point guard, but with the Magic having rookie Elfrid Payton in the mix, along with Victor Oladipo, Ridnour should mostly serve as a veteran presence chipping in with a few spare minutes per game.
The 33-year-old Ridnour averaged five points and three assists per game last season. He boasts a career three-point percentage of 35.
