What happened: The Orlando Magic have exercised their team option on forward Jamal Cain, keeping him under contract heading into the 2026-27 season. The decision locks in the depth forward as Orlando sets its offseason roster.

Why it matters: Retaining Cain gives Orlando frontcourt continuity and cost certainty as it shapes next year's roster. The move also reflects the value the team places on the same Jamal Cain the Magic converted from a two-way deal to a standard NBA contract in March.

What to watch: Watch how Cain factors into Orlando's rotation as the rest of the offseason roster takes shape.
