Due to a left hamstring strain, Orlando Magic guardJalen Suggs(hamstring) is unavailable for Monday's contest with the Charlotte Hornets. Suggs was a late addition to the team's injury report. He is yet to miss a game in this year's campaign, suiting up for 18 straight games. With the 23-year-old out, Anthony Black and Cole Anthony will likely see more action during Monday's affair.
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (hamstring) was a later addition to the injury report ahead of the team's Monday night game against the Charlotte Hornets. He's currently listed as questionable while he deals with a left hamstring strain. Whenever someone is added to the injury report in the afternoon leading up to the game, it's never a good sign. If he's unable to suit up, Anthony Black or Gary Harris could join the starting five with both of them getting more opportunities either way.
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (hamstring) is not on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against Charlotte, signaling he will be available for the contest. Suggs was limited to only nine minutes of action against Detroit on Saturday, exiting with a left hamstring problem. However, luckily, the 23-year-old will not be forced to miss additional time. Paolo Banchero's (oblique) absence has given Suggs a larger role on the offensive end this season, as he averages a career-high 14.7 points. Suggs notched 17 points with three made triples in this season's first meeting with the Hornets, adding four rebounds, four assists, one block, and two steals.
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs just cashed in on a massive deal after being named to an All-Defensive team last season. The former fifth-overall pick agreed to a five-year extension that will pay him $150.5 million to stay in Orlando. With Cole Anthony remaining on the bench and Markelle Fultz not on the team anymore, Suggs is primed to take on an even bigger role on both sides of the ball. Last year was his healthiest season so far as he appeared in 75 games and averaged 12.6 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 2.0 threes, 1.4 steals, and 1.8 turnovers per game while shooting 47.1% from the floor and 39.7% from beyond the arc.
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs struggled in Sunday's loss to the Cavaliers. The 22-year-old had one of his best offensive performances in Game 6, finishing with 22 points. However, he fizzled in Game 7, ending the afternoon with only 10 points off 2-for-14 shooting from the field. Although Suggs added nine boards, four assists, and one steal, he had five turnovers. But overall, Suggs showed signs of growth during the 2023-24 campaign and finished by averaging a career-high 12.6 points. He also shot 39.7% from deep, a significant upgrade from last season. While constructing the roster around Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner is the team's priority moving ahead, Suggs should hold a stable spot in the rotation.
