    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">AP - The Orlando Magic signed top pick J.J. Redick on Friday.

    The former Duke star and all-time NCAA 3-point leader announced just before the draft June 28 that he had a herniated disk in his back, forcing him to cancel several workouts, including one with the Magic.

    He has said he expects a full recovery and has been pain-free in rehabilitation. The Magic were comfortable taking him No. 11 overall after a physical and interviews before the draft.

    Redick's agent, Arn Tellem, didn't immediately return a telephone message Friday night.</div>
