Rashard Lewis, soon to be the newest member of the Orlando Magic, is a 6-foot-10 small forward who likes to shoot from the corners and doesn't necessarily specialize in defense.

Hedo Turkoglu, a member of the Magic the past three seasons, is a 6-foot-10 small forward who likes to shoot from the corners and doesn't necessarily specialize in defense.

With Lewis just days away from signing a five-year, $75 million free agent deal with the Magic, Turkoglu could very well be the odd man out on the Magic's roster. And apparently Orlando has already looked into trading the mild-mannered Turkoglu for a drastically different sort of player.

The Sacramento Bee, quoting an unnamed source, reported Wednesday that the Magic have inquired about the availability of volatile forward Ron Artest. The proposed deal would reunite Turkoglu with the Kings, the franchise he played with for the first three years of his career, and would send Artest back East to give Orlando a much-needed attitude adjustment.
