It's a bit confusing, but I think the article suggests that the MLE is 5 years @ 40 million.
"Under salary-cap rules, the Magic have only the middle-class exception of $5.8 million to offer him in the first year of a deal. The Magic could build a five-year deal worth close to $40 million."
5.8 plus raises over 5 years might add up to 40 million.
