Magic Forward Joe Ingles to Shine With Australia in FIBA World Cup

Orlando Magic forward Joe Ingles will be able to show the team his positive impact during the FIBA World Cup with Australia.

Joe Ingles is one of the Orlando Magic's newest players on roster. Fans will be able to get a preview of Ingles early, however. 

Ingles is playing on Austraila's national team during the FIBA World Cup.

Team Australia has been building a profound national team that has a consistent play style. The team is fast and rhythmic offensively, and they ensure nothing is easy defensively.

The team has played one public exhibition game, and it came against Venezuela on Monday. Australia won 97-41 in a decisive victory.

Ingles scored 12 points on 3 of 6 shooting with all of his shots coming from beyond the arc. The forward played nearly 17 minutes and added three rebounds and one assist.

However, the stats aren't completely indicative of Ingles' impact in the matchup or in any games moving forward. What's important for the Magic forward is that he perfectly resembles the style the game is going for.

Again, the offense rhythm. They're going to pass the ball a lot while playing fast. Ingles is a great playmaker, and is even better in a role where he's a secondary playmaker, or connector. He's going to help the team orchestrate, which will ensure the team maintains their style that works for them.

As a shooter, Ingles will find good looks as the team's young guard in Josh Giddey will allow him to see incredible looks from beyond the arc.

On top of the perfect offensive fit, Ingles is a solid defender, and will play physically. He will have the chance to set the tone on that end of the floor and essentially set the ceiling for Australia as a team.

The Magic will get a look at Ingles and the benefit he will have to the team. His positive impact will be evident in a bench role that will allow Australia to roll out their best lineups and his veteran impact will show throughout the tournament.
