As Mike Miller of LIFT Sports Management told ESPN, Banchero&rsquo;s deal includes a player option in the fifth year. This is the first for a rookie max since 2021, when Luka Doncic of the Dallas Mavericks and Trae Young of the Atlanta Hawks signed their rookie max contracts. <\/p><p>Following the deal, the Magic have Banchero and Jalen Suggs under contract for the next five years along with Desmond Bane through the 2028-29 season.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Banchero, 22, was drafted by the Orlando Magic as the first overall pick in 2022. In the recent past season, he averaged 25.9 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 4.8 assists per game across 46 games for the Magic. Overall, he has made 198 appearances with an average of 22.4 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 4.6 assists, while starting in all of them. Banchero also led the Magic to the first round of the playoffs, where they slumped to the Boston Celtics, 4-1.&nbsp;<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Breaking: Orlando Magic star Paolo Banchero has agreed to a five-year maximum rookie contract extension that could reach $287 million, Mike Miller of LIFT Sports Management tells ESPN.

He will have to wait until the All-NBA teams are revealed next season to find out if he is eligible to get a starting salary at 30% of the projected $171.1 million salary cap for the 2026-27 season. Currently, he is eligible for a max extension starting at 25% of the cap.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Having signed Banchero and Franz Wagner, the Magic have established themselves the foundation for championship contention. This is followed by their trade of Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Cole Anthony and the rights to five first-round draft picks to the Memphis Grizzlies in order to sign Desmond Bane. They are now poised to maximize their window of opportunity by having locked in a young core. It would enable them to focus on pursuing their first NBA championship.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Banchero was drafted by the Orlando Magic as the first overall pick in 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":72135,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[124,553],"class_list":["post-72134","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nba","tag-orlando-magic","tag-paolo-banchero"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 -
