He was born on March 26, 1982 in Worcester, Massachusetts. He has been married to his wife Marisa since 2005 and has no children. He gets paid roughly 4 to 5 million a year but this might be his last year if the Magic don’t make it to the playoffs. He is the youngest general manager in NBA at the age of 30. He went to Emerson College and won the Conference player of the year award and the All-American award in conference. One of the biggest trades he made was the Dwight Howard trade but it wasn’t what the magic wanted because Dwight wanted to be traded because he didn’t like his coach Stan Van Gundy. Another trade that happened was the one where the magic traded Victor Oladipo for Serge Ibaka and this could be a good move by the magic if Ibaka does well. His record since he first became manager is 103-225 and this isn’t good but the magics record has gotten better every year since they hired him. Rob Hennigan has improved the magics record but the rankings or standings have stayed close to the same because the other teams in the conference have gotten better. I don’t think he can fix the organization because a lot of his trades have been terrible and I think he is too young to be the general manager. I would replace him with an older retired player who played in the NBA and knows how to make a team better and has better knowledge of the game. He was an assistant for the Oklahoma City Thunder when they reached the NBA finals and won two back to back conference finals and he dealt with all player personnel matters. The magic don’t have a star player but we have some young players like Aaron Gordon and Elfrid Payton who have started in most of the games last year and they will be our best players this year. Rob Hennigan drafted both of them in the first round of the 2014 draft and these were probably his best draft picks he’s
