Introducing the newest member of the Orlando Magic … a 6’2″ guard from Fayetteville, North Carolina … J. Cole!!!
Okay, so maybe not quite … but the superstar rapper DID work up a sweat with a bunch of Magic players at a workout this week — and he looked GOOD!!
Of course, Cole is known for his skills on the mic AND the court … and rap legend/former NBA hopeful Master P told us back in 2020 the rapper was interested in pursuing a career in the league.
Now, Cole was able to put his skills to the test against guys like Cole Anthony and R.J. Hampton … with the Magic posting footage of the squad hooping on Wednesday.

The vid is impressive — Cole holds his own against the pros by draining three-point shots and dishing dimes.
Cole even got to chat it up with the guys after … saying, “Any time I get to act like a kid around professionals, I appreciate it.”
The Magic even gave Cole his own custom #15 jersey to top it all off!!

But, does Cole really have what it takes to be in the NBA?? Ex-pro Larry Sanders certainly thinks so — he told us back in August 2020 the dude could legit make it if he worked at it.
Keep ballin’ out, J.!!
