Maxiell was waived by the Magic on Friday, NBA.com reports.

Analysis:

Maxiell was due $2.5 million guaranteed if he was still on the team on July 10. For that reason, the Magic have decided to part ways with the veteran big man. He averaged 3.2 points, 2.5 boards and 0.6 blocks in 14 minutes with the team last season, numbers the team likely thought weren't worthy of the amount of money he was set to make. He will have to shop his talents elsewhere in the offseason.
