The 30-year-old will most likely utilize the opt-out clause in his contract with the Houston Rockets, which would then make him a free agent. Howard will be seeking one last massive deal with his prime years behind him.
The source also informs ‘MBO’ that the Magic see multiple concerns when it comes to throwing a maximum contract in the direction of Chandler Parsons. The biggest worry is Parsons’ health. He’s now undergone 2 major surgeries in the past two years.
This probably is just a strategy so they can get him at a bargain deal! For a team that needs talent badly, I find this hard to believe.
Payton said. ``I just want to keep getting better and maybe one day I can be the all-time all assists leader for the Magic.’’
