Joe Ingles Continues To Be Troubled By An Ankle Sprain
Orlando Magic forward Joe Ingles (ankle) could be out for a fourth consecutive game on Saturday against Indiana. He's nursing a left ankle sprain, and the team has listed him as questionable for the game. Caleb Houstan has mostly filled his minutes off the bench, albeit with very little productivity. Pacers games are juicy spots […]
Jalen Suggs Iffy For Saturday With Wrist Sprain
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (wrist) has officially been tagged as questionable for their Saturday night matchup against the Indiana Pacers with a left wrist sprain. The 22-year-old was forced to miss their last contest against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday, but that might be the only time he needs to miss with this injury. […]
Joe Ingles In Danger Of Missing Third Consecutive Game
Orlando Magic forward Joe Ingles (ankle) could be out for a third straight game on Thursday versus Milwaukee. He's been sidelined by a left ankle sprain. Ingles has averaged 18.2 minutes off the bench during his first year in Orlando, posting 4.9 points with 2.8 rebounds and 3.4 assists. Caleb Houstan has a chance to […]

Jalen Suggs Will Suit Up Against Boston
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (wrist) will play on Sunday against the Celtics. He was listed as questionable because of a left wrist sprain, missing Saturday's shootaround. However, he will suit up, which is good news, considering Markelle Fultz (knee) won't return versus Boston. The 22-year-old has averaged a career-high 12.5 points with 3.5 rebounds, […]
Markelle Fultz Now Out On Sunday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) won't play in Sunday's game in Boston. He's battled a left knee issue for over a month, although it appears he's getting closer to returning. Fortunately for Orlando, Jalen Suggs (wrist) will suit up, which will help lessen the blow. At the same time, Anthony Black will likely draw […]
Joe Ingles Questionable On Sunday
Orlando Magic forward Joe Ingles (ankle) is questionable ahead of Sunday's game in Boston. The 36-year-old sprained his left ankle earlier in the week, so he may sit this one out to give him more time to recover. However, Ingles has averaged just 4.9 points in 24 games this season, meaning his absence won't impact […]
Jalen Suggs Questionable Against The Celtics
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (wrist) is questionable ahead of Sunday's game in Boston. He had 19 points in 26 minutes in Friday's matchup with the Celtics, the first of back-to-back meetings between the clubs. However, he's battling left wrist soreness, which could be enough to keep him out for Sunday's rematch. With Markelle Fultz […]
Markelle Fultz Doubtful Versus Boston
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) isn't expected to play in Sunday's matchup with the Celtics. The 25-year-old has appeared in only five games this season, averaging 11.4 points, 5.0 assists, and 1.2 steals. However, he's been sidelined for over a month because of a left knee issue. Fortunately, it appears Fultz is working his […]

From Worst to First: The 2023 Orlando Magic
Through 23 games last season, the Orlando Magic were just 5-18. At one point, they had lost nine straight. Oh, how the tides have turned in just one year. This season, the Magic are 16-7 through 23 games and own the third-best record in the Eastern Conference. They even turned that nine-game losing streak from […]
Paolo Banchero Exits Early On Monday
Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero (ankle) is considered questionable to return to Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Banchero rolled his ankle during the third quarter and headed to the locker room to be further evaluated. Franz Wagner will likely be counted on more offensively now. Joe Ingles (ankle) has returned to the game, so […]
Joe Ingles Uncertain To Return On Monday
Orlando Magic forward Joe Ingles (ankle) is considered questionable to return for Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The veteran forward suffered a left ankle sprain while fighting for a loose ball. Ingles was able to walk back to the locker room under his own power. The expectation is that the Magic are going to […]
Jalen Suggs, Jonathan Isaac Both Upgraded To Available On Monday
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (ankle) and forward Jonathan Isaac (ankle) will return to the floor from ankle sprains on Monday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Suggs returned very quickly from an ugly-looking ankle injury just two games ago. His two-way abilities should be welcomed back with open arms by the rest of the team and […]

He seems to be trending in the right direction so he may be back sooner […]
Jalen Suggs Tagged As Questionable For Monday
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (ankle) has been tagged as questionable for the Monday night game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The young combo guard originally hurt his ankle on Wednesday and it looked worse than it seems to be since Suggs is already up to a questionable status. He'll likely test out his ankle in […]

Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero was on a roll against Cleveland on Wednesday and finished a 121-111 loss with a career-high 42 points on 16-for-26 shooting. Banchero's offensive game has been inconsistent throughout the season, but he certainly made up for it a bit with his performance on Wednesday. Defensively, Banchero contributed a pair of […]
