Harris was extended a qualifying offer by the Magic on Tuesday.

Analysis:

The move enables Orlando to match any offer Harris might receive as a restricted free agent this offseason. Harris appeared in 68 games last season, averaging a career-best 17.1 points to go with 6.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists. He figures to draw considerable interest on the open market this summer, so Orlando will likely have to pay up - probably in the $12-$14 million/year range - to keep him around.
