Magic's Jalen Suggs: Signs five-year extension

Suggs and the Magic agreed to a five-year, $150.5 million rookie contract extension Monday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Suggs posted career-high shooting splits (47/40/76) last season but has yet to truly break out offensively in the NBA. However, his defense has always been elite, and he was named to the All-Defensive Second Team for the 2023-24 campaign. Suggs is heading into Year 4 and will look to take another step forward for the up-and-coming Magic, who surprisingly finished fifth in the Eastern Conference last season.
