Speights comes to Orlando after a disappointing season with the Clippers. In Los Angeles, he could not repeat his performance the previious three seasons with the Warriors. 

Speights is a stretch big man who can help space the floor, but fitting him into an already crowded Orlando front court could prove difficult.
