With Mosley’s contract extension through the 2027-28 season, the Magic are set to continue their upward trajectory. This season, led by All-Star second-year forward Paolo Banchero and rising star Franz Wagner, the team currently leads the Southeast Division with a 37-28 record, positioning them for their first playoff berth since 2020.
