After losing in the NBA finals to the Lakers, Orlando Magic forward Hedo Turkoglu plans seek more money in free agency.

“I think Hedo distinguished himself in this playoff run,” his agent, Lon Babby said. “He’s in a different spot than he was before the playoffs began. He’s a rare player, a unique player who helped take a team to the Finals. He’s grateful for the opportunity he has been given. He’s enjoyed his time in Orlando. It’s a solid organization, a team on the rise. Hedo will weigh his options.”

Turkoglu is entering the final year of his current $36 million, six-year contract. He would be scheduled to make $7.3 million next season under his current deal.

“It would make sense for him to opt out,” Babby said. “I can’t imagine a scenario in which he would not.”

For the most part Turkoglu played very well for the Magic this year but it will be interesting to see who, if anyone, will give him a huge contract.
