The Magic's frontcourt made no changes, except for the size of the salaries for Moe Wagner and Jonathan Isaac moving forward. The team appears content with what they have in the middle so where does that leave the Magic less than a week into free agency? There aren't many, if any, moves left. But Las Vegas Summer League is up next. ... Orlando City will get Pedro Gallese, who didn't have a strong start to his season, back in goal after international duty with Peru. Their goalkeeping without him actually got worse. ... The Super60 football prospects for 2026 are out, and Chris Hays breaks Central Florida's next wave of high school stars expected to make an impact at the highest levels. ... Olivier Rioux is NOT going to be a factor for the Gators this year. But at 7-foot-9, it's worth waiting to figure out if they can develop him into something useful later down the line. ... Donovan Mitchell is good. Very good. But $50M a year good? The Cavs think so. They opened the bank vault, but NBA owners will have to decide if this model is sustainable long-term. It's the price of doing business. But if Mitchell is worth this much, how much would a prime LeBron James or Michael Jordan be worth today? Crazy to think about.
