Keep an eye on the Magic potentially moving on from Jalen Suggs this offseason, per @BrettSiegelNBA

“Keep an eye on Orlando possibly looking to cut some salary and make a minor adjustment to their starting lineup, possibly moving on from two-way guard Jalen Suggs after Anthony Black's breakout 2025-26 campaign.”

This will also be an interesting deal, if it happens. Suggs is a very good two way player, but he is probably overpaid and has problems staying healthy. Still only 24 though. 

From Orlando perspective, the prototype of a deal is imho what Denver did with MPJ last offseason. Get a cheaper player that is within at least 80 % of what Suggs is (might be different position) and pay a FRP. Shooting is still Orlando's biggest need. They could offer 2032 FRP or some second rounders.

Suggs is young enough to be interested both for rebuilding teams as well as established enough to be interesting for competing teams.
