Now that sidekick Tracy McGrady has taken his show to Texas, are the Orlando Magic about to get the suprise of all suprises in the form of a healthy Grant Hill?

After three major foot surgeries, the oft injured former Duke standout is apparently feeling just fine.  

"I'm doing great. I feel good and I am working hard," Hill told The Boston Globe. "It's been a long off-season, but I did keep myself busy. Even during last season, which was my off-season, I was in the gym every day working on my game, trying to get better. And I look forward to hopefully showing everyone what I worked on."

Hill has only played 47 games with the Magic after signing a maximum-salaried deal in the summer of 2000.  The last of his three major operations was on March 18, 2003, two months after his last game.  

Hill has been working out for three hours a day at the Duke Bluedevil facilities and has reportedly been playing all-out full court ball with no icing afterwards.

"He definitely believes he's back," Orlando GM John Weisbrod said. "I can tell by the gleam in his eye. Before, there was always that trepidation.

No one is getting too excited just yet about these latest developments as some of us have become quite jaded over the prospect of Grant Hill playing a full season, however this time Hill is convinced.

"If I didn't believe 100 percent that I would be able to come back healthy and beat this injury, then I wouldn't have had the surgery or wouldn't have put myself through this. I am excited about being healthy, I am excited about this team and upcoming season. I like the fact that people kind of count me out and kind of count the team out."
