FA Market for Moritz Wagner?

Rumor has it he will be healthy before the start of the 25-26 season. He’s currently 28 and was having a good season before getting injured. What teams should be reaching out to him and what do you think his next contract will be?

TPMLE? There's actually a fair number of veteran bigs available in FA this offseason so he might get squeezed.

The Hornets should sign him. He's not fixing that defense, but it would at least be an acknowledgement that defense and rebounding are aspects to the game of basketball.

I'd be surprised if he didn't resign with Orlando. $10M/yr or a bit more.

you just want him off magic..lol
still hoping he signs for a bit less then the 11 mill option or magic trade goga or jett for tpe and make room
6 -8 is a steal but magic need to sign a bench pg first then sign him with bird rights

I don't think you can release his cap hold and retain his Bird rights, but really the Hornets have the worse defensive roster in the NBA right now.

So its your belief that a Cavs fan is so terrified of Orlando having a backup caliber center on their lineup that he's going to post about him going to another team?

Hmmmm, that feels kinda silly.

Wagner, Kornet, Horford, Ayton, Turner, Capela…are there other playable free agent centers?
Edit: Lopez and Precious as well. Maybe Looney, Hays
Thomas Bryant, Paul Reed…eh

he has been a key bench scorer for Orlando. They will do what they can to keep him with his brother, up to a point
