Wizards Unlikely to Offer Davis Max Extension

Anthony Davis enters his first full season with the Washington Wizards without an extension and says he plans to revisit contract talks after the season. Davis is seeking a maximum-level deal, but Washington is reportedly unlikely to offer one, citing his injury history, age, and the team’s rebuilding timeline and salary-cap considerations. He is owed about $58.5 million this season and holds a roughly $62.8 million player option for 2027-28; he could become eligible for a four-year extension worth up to $275 million. Davis’s health and performance this season could affect his value, while a gap between his expectations and Washington’s plans could bring his future into focus before the trade deadline.
