Paolo Banchero Signs Historic Five-Year Extension with Magic
Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero has agreed to a five-year rookie max extension worth $239 million, which could reach approximately $287 million should he become eligible for a supermax deal. The agreement includes a player option for the final year in 2030-31. It's the largest contract in Magic history, topping a $224 million pact Franz Wagner signed with the team a year ago. Banchero missed 34 games due to an oblique injury in 2024-25, but he became only the third Magic player to average over 25 points per game. The 22-year-old posted 25.9 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 4.8 assists. He seems poised to be a fantasy standout for many years to come.
