Magic brace for tough offseason as playoff collapse prompts roster moves
Orlando Magic wrap up the 2025-26 season after a 3-1 playoff collapse, triggering a difficult offseason focused on cap space and roster reshaping. The team is weighing moves for three veterans: Jonathan Isaac, who is owed $14.5M in 2026-27 but has injury-plagued, limited minutes and a declining role; Jalen Suggs, a positive contributor with four years and $115M left but injury history and inconsistent shooting threaten his value; and Moritz Wagner, whose injuries and crowded frontcourt (with Wendell Carter Jr. and Goga Bitadze) make him expendable to free up cap space. The goal is to improve depth and cap flexibility to better support Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner going forward.
