Magic's Franz Wagner: Could miss 2-to-4 weeks
Franz Wagner was diagnosed with a high left ankle sprain Monday and could miss two-to-four weeks, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.The Orlando Magic haven't released a timetable yet, but Charania notes that this type of injury usually sidelines players for at least a couple weeks. Wagner suffered this injury during the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Knicks, and it was apparent right away that he would miss some time. With Wagner sidelined, the Magic could turn to guys like Tristan da Silva, Jett Howard, Jonathan Isaac and Noah Penda to fill the void. Anthony Black should take on more usage as well.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Won't return Sunday
Franz Wagner sustained a lower left leg injury in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Knicks and won't return. He'll be re-evaluated when the team returns to Orlando.Wagner landed awkwardly on his left leg and was unable to put any weight on the leg while being helped off the court. He'll finish with seven points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across seven minutes. If the star forward is forced to miss additional time, Tristan da Silva, Jett Howard and Noah Penda are candidates for increased playing time. The Orlando Magic are expected to provide an update on Wagner's status ahead of Tuesday's NBA Cup matchup against the Heat by Monday night.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Scores 21, grabs seven boards
Franz Wagner amassed 21 points (8-19 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and three steals over 36 minutes during Friday's 112-109 victory over the Pistons.Wagner didn't have his best shooting performance and missed all three of his attempts from beyond the arc. However, that didn't prevent the star forward from reaching the 20-point plateau for the fourth time in his last five contests.
