Franz Wagner Returns To Action Wednesday
1 year agoOrlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (ankle) was back on the court Wednesday as Germany beat Latvia to lock up a semifinal spot at the FIBA World Cup. It was a proper nail-biter, and Germany eventually came out on top 81-79, with Wagner contributing a team-high 16 points on 7-for-12 shooting. He entered the game off the bench and was also tied for the team-high in rebounding with eight boards, adding three assists in 24 minutes. Wagner, who logged only his second game of this year's World Cup, will now gear up to face his NBA colleagues as the Germans meet Team USA in the final four. His return to the court is great news for the team, and the Magic will likely be delighted as well to see Wagner back in action a few weeks before training camp starts.
