The Orlando Magic carry $209,865,321 in salary for 2026–27, the 6th largest payroll in the league.

That is $52.9M over the $165.0M salary cap, so the roster gets built through exceptions, re-signings and trades rather than cap space.

They are $17.4M over the $200.4M luxury-tax line, and at that payroll the tax bill projects to $32,226,624 — a combined cost of $242,091,945.

Above the first apron at $209.0M, they lose the non-taxpayer mid-level, cannot take back more salary than they send out in a trade, and cannot acquire a player by sign-and-trade. They stay +$2.5M clear of the second apron.

This team has 14 players on standard contracts and 3 two-way deals.

Franz Wagner is the largest cap hit on the roster at $41,754,690, 19.9% of team payroll, ahead of Paolo Banchero ($41.2M) and Desmond Bane ($39.4M).

They have $13,064,000 of spending power available across 2 exceptions, the largest a $7.0M TPE (Tyus Jones).

Committed salary drops to $192,650,137 for 2027-28, held by 8 players still under contract, against a projected $176,000,000 cap.
