Wizards Set Hard Stance On Anthony Davis’ Max Extension Demands

The Washington Wizards are not expected to offer star big man Anthony Davis a max contract extension, according to a report from The Athletic. Davis is slated to make $58.5 million this season and holds a $62.8 million player option for 2027-28, which could make him eligible for a four-year deal worth up to $275 million if declined.

Davis stated at media day that he will wait until the offseason to discuss a potential extension with the front office. After missing the entire 2025-26 season with left hand ligament damage, Davis joins a reshaped roster featuring Trae Young, Deandre Ayton, and rookie top pick AJ Dybantsa.
