Free agent guard Jevon Carter has agreed to a one-year, $3.5 million deal to remain with the Orlando Magic, according to sources who spoke with ESPN. The veteran guard returns to the franchise after finishing the previous season in Orlando, where he successfully established himself as a key contributor in the team's rotation.
Carter, known for his defensive tenacity and perimeter shooting, earned his spot with the Magic through consistent play late last year. By securing Carter on a short-term deal, Orlando maintains critical backcourt depth and veteran leadership for a young roster aiming to climb the Eastern Conference standings. The $3.5 million agreement ensures Carter will continue to provide defensive pressure and floor spacing for head coach Jamahl Mosley's squad as they look to build on their recent momentum.
