US EditionEx-Michigan Basketball Star Signs One-Year Free Agent Deal
- Moritz Wagner will return to the Orlando Magic on a one-season contract valued at $5 million after entering free agency.
- Wagner chose to re-sign after the Magic declined an $11 million club option following his ACL injury in December last season.
- Wagner, a 6-foot-11 German forward selected 25th overall in the 2018 draft, posted career-high averages in 30 games with nearly 13 points, close to 5 rebounds, and shooting just over one-third from beyond the arc before sustaining an injury.
- He played for Germany’s 2023 World Cup winning team and joined his brother Franz, who averaged 24.2 points for Orlando last season, on the Magic roster.
- Wagner aims to be ready for the upcoming season, and his return strengthens Orlando’s bid to contend in the Eastern Conference with a balanced roster under the league’s salary cap rules.
