  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Suffers torn right oblique

    Wagner (oblique) tore his right oblique during Friday's 102-94 loss to the 76ers and will be re-evaluated in four weeks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

    Wagner had carried the Magic over the last month following Paolo Banchero's own torn right oblique injury, with the former averaging 26.1 points, 6.3 assists, 6.0 rebounds and 1.8 steals over 34.9 minutes since and including Nov. 1. Wagner will be re-evaluated in mid-January, but he is considered out indefinitely. With the Magic without their two young stars in Wagner and Banchero, they will turn to Jalen Suggs, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Tristan da Silva, and Cole Anthony to take on bigger roles in the short term, though Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports that Banchero is progressing well and is aiming to resume activities in late December.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Hits for 30 again in Friday's loss

    Wagner chipped in 30 points (10-23 FG, 3-12 3Pt, 7-7 FT), five rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 38 minutes during Friday's 102-94 loss to Philadelphia.

    The fourth-year forward led all scorers on the night, but Wagner didn't get enough help from his teammates -- Jalen Suggs was the only other Orlando player to top 12 points. Wagner has scored 30-plus points in three straight games, and he's hit for at least 20 in nine straight contests, averaging 28.1 points, 6.8 assists, 5.7 boards, 2.1 threes, 2.0 steals and 0.9 blocks over the latter stretch.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Leads all scorers with 35 points

    Wagner notched 35 points (12-23 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 10-10 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and one block across 36 minutes during Wednesday's 106-102 victory over the 76ers.

    Wagner led all scorers with 35 points in Wednesday's tight win, continuing to shoulder the load on offense for the Magic in the extended absence of star forward Paolo Banchero (oblique). Over his last 18 games, Wagner is averaging a robust 25.3 points, 6.6 assists, 5.9 rebounds, 1.9 steals and 2.0 three-pointers in 34.7 minutes per contest. The 23-year-old star forward should continue to operate as Orlando's go-to scoring threat and primary playmaker while Banchero remains off the court, and despite Wagner's surge in usage, his shooting efficiency hasn't taken as much of a hit as some fantasy managers may have anticipated.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Leads Orlando in loss Tuesday

    Wagner had 30 points (10-22 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 9-9 FT), three rebounds, six assists and three steals over 39 minutes during Tuesday's 121-106 loss to the Knicks.

    Wagner was the only Magic player who cleared the 20-point plateau in this devastating loss to New York, and the fourth-year forward continues to build on what has been a career-best season for him. Wagner is averaging a career-high 23.7 points per game, and while his numbers are likely to regress a bit once Paolo Banchero (oblique) is back in the lineup, Wagner has proven he can handle being the No. 1 option. The 23-year-old has scored at least 30 points in five of his last 10 appearances.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Versatile showing in victory

    Wagner posted 20 points (4-17 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 12-14 FT), nine rebounds, eight assists and two blocks in 38 minutes during Sunday's 100-92 victory over the Nets.

    Wagner did it all for Orlando on Sunday like we've seen many times this season, leading the team in scoring and assists while finishing one rebound shy of a double-double in a well-balanced performance. Wagner, who also recorded a team-high-tying pair of blocks, struggled a bit from the field, but he still managed to tally his 17th outing with at least 20 points.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Elite production continues

    Wagner ended with 29 points (12-20 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists, one block and two steals across 35 minutes during Friday's 123-100 victory over the Nets.

    Wagner continues to play the best basketball of his young career, leading the Magic to their 11th win in the past 12 games. With Paolo Banchero continuing to miss time due to an oblique injury, Wagner has put the team on his back. Over the past month, he is averaging 24.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 1.9 steals and 2.1 three-pointers in 33.5 minutes per game. Until Banchero is ready to go, Wagner should continue to serve as the primary option, a role he has seemingly embraced.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Fills stat sheet Monday

    Wagner closed Monday's 95-84 win over the Hornets with 21 points (8-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-6 FT), one rebound, seven assists, two blocks and four steals in 40 minutes.

    The Magic defeated the Hornets in one of the lowest-scoring games of the current 2024-25 NBA season. Still, Wagner found a way to stuff the stat sheet and carry a depleted Orlando team to the finish line while being employed in a point-forward role due to their lack of depth in the backcourt. Expect Wagner to continue to enjoy an uptick in his usage rate as long as the Magic remain this depleted.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Near triple-double vs. Detroit

    Wagner recorded 30 points (11-22 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds, eight assists and two steals over 29 minutes during Saturday's 111-100 victory over the Pistons.

    Wagner was Saturday's leading scorer and was close to registering the first triple-double of his career. Wagner has logged eight games with at least 25/5/5 this season, which he was able to do only seven times in the first three years of his NBA career. Wagner has taken on a bigger role on offense since Paolo Banchero tore his oblique in late October. Since Banchero's injury, Wagner has averaged 25.8 points, 6.4 rebounds, 6.4 assists and 1.8 steals over 33.9 minutes per game.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Seals win with last-second shot

    Wagner accumulated 37 points (13-26 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 7-8 FT), six rebounds, 11 assists and four steals over 39 minutes during Thursday's 119-118 victory over the Lakers.

    Wagner drained a three with two seconds left on the clock to wrap up the win for the Magic. The win was impressive considering Orlando's shorthanded status, and they are managing to string wins together without Paolo Banchero (oblique). Wagner represents a key part of that effort, averaging 28.6 points, 7.4 assists, 6.2 rebounds and 2.2 steals over his last five games.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Regresses in loss

    Wagner recorded 14 points (5-11 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, six assists and four steals over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 104-93 loss to the Clippers.

    Wagner is the driving force behind Orlando's offense, but the loss of Paolo Banchero (oblique) has forced the Michigan product to shoulder a heavy load. Wagner is on pace to have his best year yet, averaging 22.3 points, 5.6 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 1.3 steals over 16 games.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Pours in 32 points

    Wagner amassed 32 points (12-24 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds and eight assists across 39 minutes during Monday's 109-99 win over the Suns.

    Wagner followed up a 31-point outing against Philadelphia with another strong total against the depleted Suns, who are now 1-5 without Kevin Durant (calf). It's a nice statement road win for the 9-6 Magic, who are off to a great start thanks to big totals from Wagner. Through 15 games, he's averaged 22.9 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.4 steals.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Game-high 31 points vs. 76ers

    Wagner recorded 31 points (10-23 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 11 rebounds, six assists, one block and two steals in 41 minutes during Friday's 98-86 victory over Philadelphia.

    Wagner extended his streak of 20-plus points Friday, and he managed to reach 30 points for the second time in his last three games. It was his first double-double of the 2024-25 regular season, and the 2021 first-round pick has taken on a larger role on offense while Paolo Banchero is rehabbing from a torn right oblique. Across the nine games that Banchero has been sidelined, Wagner has averaged 24.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 1.6 steals over 33.3 minutes per game.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Stays hot as leading scorer

    Wagner ended with 29 points (9-24 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 8-9 FT), three rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal in 37 minutes during Wednesday's 94-90 victory over Indiana.

    Wagner continued his recent hot stretch of leading the Orlando offense by posting a game-best point mark while handing out a team-high-tying assist total in a winning effort. Wagner, who connected on a team-high trio of threes, was nearly perfect from the line Wednesday while coming up one point shy of the 30-point mark. Wagner has tallied at least 20 points in six straight contests, adding five or more dimes in five consecutive outings.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Impressive streak continues

    Wagner supplied 32 points (14-25 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and three steals across 32 minutes during Tuesday's 114-89 win over Charlotte.

    Wagner was the one player who needed to step up big time with Paolo Banchero (oblique) sidelined, and the German forward has delivered when called upon duty. This 32-point effort was a season-high mark for him, and this was also his fifth straight game with at least 20 points, a span in which he's averaging 26.4 points per game while shooting 48.5 percent from the floor.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Goes for 27 points in win Friday

    Wagner notched 27 points (9-18 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, six assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Friday's 115-88 win over New Orleans.

    Wagner has been tasked with handling a bigger role on offense due to the absence of Paolo Banchero (oblique), and he's stepping up when called upon. Wagner has scored at least 22 points in each of his last three appearances, during which he's shooting 46.6 percent from the field and 31.3 percent from three. Expect Wagner to remain the Magic's go-to player on offense as long as Banchero remains out, which should be a few more weeks in a best-case scenario.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Big first half in standout showing

    Wagner produced 28 points (10-23 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 6-8 FT), eight rebounds and six assists in 39 minutes during Wednesday's 118-111 loss to Indiana.

    Wagner put on a show for Orlando, including getting off to a red-hot start in the first half to conclude the contest with a game-best scoring total. Wagner, who scored 21 points in the first half alone, also handed out a team-high-tying assist total and was second on the team in scoring in Wednesday's losing effort. Wagner recorded his fifth outing of the year with at least 20 points, and he has done so in two straight contests.
