Future Hall of Fame center Patrick Ewing has reached a tentative agreement to play for the Orlando Magic, the Orlando Sentinel reported on Friday.

The Sentinel also reported that the Magic are close to a deal with forward Horace Grant. The 38-year-old Ewing and 36-year-old Grant have combined to play 30 years in the NBA.

Although Magic general manager John Gabriel declined to comment, sources close to both sides confirmed the upcoming deal with Ewing, who played last season with the Seattle SuperSonics after spending the first 15 years of his career with the New York Knicks.

The Jamacian Sasqautch has a new home. I hope he does well. He just didn't fit in with the sonics. I hope Doc Rivers can find a good role for him.
