Orlando Magic

Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (ankle) is out again for Sunday's game against Atlanta. The 22-year-old tweaked his ankle in Wednesday's double-overtime meeting with the Sacramento Kings and didn't play on Friday versus Denver. Chuma Okeke got the start in his place, finishing with seven rebounds, three points, one steal, and one block. Of course, without Wagner on the floor, Jalen Suggs, Paolo Banchero, and Cole Anthony should remain the primary scoring options, with the trio accounting for 82 of Orlando's 122 team points on Friday.

Orlando Magic center Goga Bitadze (illness) remains questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The big man has been under the weather, and he missed Friday's meeting with the Denver Nuggets. Wendell Carter Jr. (knee) was also unavailable, so Moritz Wagner moved into the starting lineup. He played well, amassing 19 points, 11 rebounds, and two steals. If Bitadze and Carter miss another game, Wagner remains a must-start in all fantasy leagues.

Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero pulled off a spectacular performance on Friday against Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets, leading his team to a 122-120 road win with his first career triple-double. He topped all scorers with 32 points on 8-for-21 shooting and registered 10 rebounds with 11 assists while adding three steals on the defensive end. Banchero's shooting performance could've been better, but he got past the 30-point mark thanks to his 15-for-19 effort at the charity stripe. The first pick from the 2022 NBA Draft has had a hugely impressive opening to 2024, averaging 34.0 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 7.3 assists with 1.7 steals.

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (knee) won't suit up for Friday's meeting with the Nuggets in Denver. Goga Bitadze (illness), Franz Wagner (ankle), and Markelle Fultz (knee) are also sidelined, so the Magic will need to go deep into their rotation to fill the void. That said, Paolo Banchero, Cole Anthony, and Jalen Suggs should be the primary scoring options. However, Chuma Okeke and Moritz Wagner, who will start, are both worth streaming.

Orlando Magic center Goga Bitadze (illness) is out on Friday versus the Denver Nuggets. Wendell Carter Jr. (knee) is also out, joining Markelle Fultz (knee) and Franz Wagner (ankle) on the shelf versus the defending champs. As a result, Moritz Wagner will slide into the starting lineup. The 26-year-old has averaged 10.9 points and 4.4 rebounds this season. However, he should see a significant increase in production on Friday, so he's worth streaming in all fantasy formats. He'll also make an ideal value option for those participating in DFS contests.
