Report: Davis unlikely to get max extension from Wizards

Anthony Davis enters the final season of his current contract with the Washington Wizards, leaving his future with the team uncertain as negotiations loom. Davis, who holds a $62.8 million player option for the 2027-28 season, has reportedly sought a long-term extension worth up to $275 million over four years—aligning with maximum salary levels.

However, insiders suggest the Wizards are highly unlikely to offer such a deal, citing concerns over his injury history, age, and the franchise’s developmental stage. With key players still on rookie contracts, the team prioritizes salary flexibility to remain competitive, particularly as the NBA’s punitive apron rules tighten.
