The Orlando Magic are poised to make a significant splash in the upcoming offseason as they eye a pursuit of Golden State Warriors star Klay Thompson.
Thompson, a seasoned sharpshooter with over a decade of experience with the Dubs, finds himself on an expiring contract, igniting speculation about his future in the league.
According to NBA insider Marc Stein, Orlando has emerged as a potential destination for Thompson, with the Magic’s available cap space estimated to reach up to $45 million, depending on various factors.
Stein’s insights further corroborate reports from other sources, including NBA insider Shams Charania, who identified Thompson as a target for multiple teams, including both Florida-based franchises, the Magic and the Miami Heat, and the Lakers and Clippers.
This season Thompson, 34, is averaging 17.3 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 30.6 minutes per game.
