Orlando Magic

Orlando Magic guard/forward Franz Wagner has been ruled out for a second consecutive game on Wednesday versus Milwaukee. He was initially listed as questionable for the contest. Jonathan Isaac and Joe Ingles have a chance to see more action with Wagner out of the lineup. Isaac is the stronger fantasy option, and he's coming off an impressive 22-minute outing against Houston. The 26-year-old registered 10 points, eight rebounds, a pair of steals, and a block on Tuesday. However, due to his injury history, there's a chance Isaac will see limited action in Wednesday's matchup.

Orlando Magic guard/forward Franz Wagner (ankle) has been downgraded to out for Tuesday's matchup against Houston. After Wagner hurt his right ankle on Sunday versus Chicago, there was hope of him being available for the contest when he took part in the morning shootaround, but the team has now officially ruled him out. Joe Ingles will likely play a larger part in the rotation without Wagner, although he's been unproductive throughout the season, and fantasy managers should look elsewhere.

Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (ankle) was on the court during shootaround putting up shots ahead of Tuesday's tilt against the Houston Rockets. It renders Wagner closer to probable than questionable with a sprained right ankle for Tuesday's action, but his status could still come down to a game-time decision based on pregame warmups. The 46-32 Magic could choose to exercise caution with the 22-year-old former first-round pick with an eye toward the postseason, considering Wagner also sustained a right ankle sprain back in January. More would be asked of Joe Ingles if Wagner is out against the Rockets, but the veteran marksman has only put up 8.0 points, 4.0 assists. 1.5 rebounds, 1.0 steals, and 2.0 three-pointers per contest in four games without Wagner this year. Houston is also allowing the fourth-fewest DraftKings points to opposing small forwards.

Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Houston Rockets. After Wagner exited during the third quarter of Sunday's win over the visiting Chicago Bulls, an MRI confirmed a sprained right ankle following the contest. It's worth noting that Wagner missed eight games back in January due to the same injury, so the 46-32 Magic could opt to exercise caution with the 22-year-old former first-round pick with the playoffs on the horizon. Joe Ingles would be in line for an expanded role and uptick in fantasy value if Wagner can't play for Orlando on Tuesday, but the veteran sharpshooter averaged only 8.0 points, 4.0 assists. 1.5 rebounds, 1.0 steals, and 2.0 three-pointers in four games without Wagner earlier in 2023-24. Houston is giving up the fourth-fewest DraftKings points to opposing small forwards as well.

Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac logged only five minutes of action on Sunday against Chicago due to a sore back. The injury-prone forward picked up a couple of rebounds in the limited playing time before getting ruled out for the rest of the game. Health issues tend to accompany Isaac wherever he goes, but the 28-year-old has been effective when on the court. Despite seeing just 17.5 minutes per game last month, Isaac averaged 9.8 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks. Orlando also lost Franz Wagner (ankle) on Sunday, meaning head coach Jamahl Mosley could be forced to make multiple changes to his rotation on Tuesday versus Houston.
