Magic's Franz Wagner: Fares well in return
Wagner produced 14 points (6-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds and five assists over 17 minutes during Monday's 118-99 victory over the Bucks.
Wagner returned from a nine-game absence Monday, and he operated under strict restrictions off the bench. He seemed to be moving around well, and his minutes likely continue to ramp up. Fantasy managers will be hoping he's back to full steam after the All-Star break.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Available to play
Wagner (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Bucks.
Wagner, who has missed the past nine games for Orlando, officially has the green light to return after shaking off his questionable tag. After such a lengthy stint on the sidelines, he may face major restrictions in his first game back. However, Wagner has never come off the bench in his career, so with this news, Anthony Black is likely to retreat to the second unit.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Questionable for Monday
Wagner (ankle) is questionable to play Monday versus Milwaukee.
Wagner has missed the past nine games for the Magic with an ankle injury, but this is the first time he's received the questionable tag since going down, which indicates progress. We'll have a better idea on Wagner's status based on his activity level at shootaround, but if he's cleared to return, Anthony Black might head back to the second unit.

Wagner (ankle) is out for Saturday's game against the Jazz.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Won't play Thursday
Wagner (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game versus the Nets, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
This will be the eighth consecutive game on the inactive list for Wagner, and it's not a great sign that he continues to get ruled out 24 hours in advance of tipoff. It appears Wagner tried to return too soon from his initial 16-game absence, so that he could play in his home country of Germany on Jan. 15 against Memphis. For now, he should be considered doubtful for Saturday's game versus the Jazz.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Ruled out for Tuesday
Wagner (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Thunder.
Wagner will miss his seventh straight game while managing a left high-ankle sprain, a nagging issue that has limited him to just two appearances over the Magic's past 24 contests. The forward's next chance to return will come Thursday against the Nets, though there's little indication a comeback is imminent.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Remaining out Sunday
Wagner (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Spurs.
Wagner is set to miss a sixth consecutive game while he gets more time off to heal from the left high-ankle sprain he sustained Dec. 7 before he returned to action earlier this month for a pair of appearances during the Magic's trip in Europe. His next chance to play will come Tuesday against the Thunder, though he hasn't yet been cleared to participate in full-contact work since his last game Jan. 18. Per Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel, Wagner was spotted taking part in some off-court workout exercises as recently as Friday, but until he resumes practicing in some fashion, his return to game action may not be imminent.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Another absence coming
Wagner (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Raptors, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Wagner will miss his fifth straight game Friday, Magic appear to be taking a cautious approach with the forward, who has yet to resume taking part in full-contact work while he gives his sprained left ankle more time to heal. Anthony Black has been a breakout performer for the Magic and should be locked into a high-minute starting role at least until Wagner is ready to play again.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Out Wednesday, not taking contact
Magic head coach Jamahl Mosley said that Wagner (ankle), who is out for Wednesday's game against the Heat, was able to ride a stationary bike and take part in standstill shooting during the team's morning shootaround, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
While Wagner hasn't been shut down from activity entirely since he experienced soreness last Thursday in the left ankle that he previously sprained Dec. 7, the 24-year-old hasn't yet resumed taking contact and appears likely to remain out through Friday's home game versus the Raptors. The Magic aren't terming Wagner's injury as a setback and haven't sent him in for an MRI after he previously missed 16 straight contests due to the high-ankle sprain, but the fifth-year wing will need to strengthen his ankle before he's cleared to return to game action. In the meantime, Wagner's absence should extend Anthony Black's stay in the starting five.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Remaining out Wednesday
Wagner (ankle) won't play Wednesday against Miami.
Wagner will be sidelined for a fourth straight game due to left ankle injury management, after the Magic had previously classified his injury as left ankle soreness. The fifth-year wing had previously missed 16 straight contests while recovering from a left high-ankle sprain before returning to play Jan. 15 and 18, only to suffer a setback during the Magic's morning shootaround ahead of last Thursday's loss to the Hornets. Per Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel, head coach Jamahl Mosley said that Wagner was able to go through some light, non-contact shooting Saturday, which offers some hope that the 24-year-old may be able to avoid an extended absence.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Ruled out for Monday
Wagner (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.
Wagner missed Orlando's last two games with left ankle soreness and will miss a third consecutive contest due to injury management. The star forward was able to play in both of the Magic's games in Europe following a 16-game absence due to a left high-ankle sprain, and it appears the team is now erring on the side of caution. Wagner's next opportunity to play will come Wednesday against the Heat.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Out again Saturday
Wagner (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Cavaliers.
Wagner appeared in both of the Magic's games in Europe last week after he had missed over five weeks due to a left high-ankle sprain, but he'll now miss his second game in a row due to soreness in the same ankle. Per Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel, head coach Jamahl Mosley said that Wagner didn't suffer any setbacks in the Magic's two Europe games but instead felt "really, really sore" following morning shootaround Thursday. The Magic have seemingly exercised caution in holding Wagner out for two straight games, though Mosley expressed hope that the ankle issue wouldn't be a long-term concern for the 24-year-old forward.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Out with ankle issue
Wagner has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Charlotte due to left ankle soreness.
The star forward was out of action for over one month due to a sprained left ankle before he returned to action last week to play in both of the Magic's games in Europe versus the Grizzlies. Though the Magic had three days off following their most recent game, Wagner will apparently need more maintenance for the injured ankle. Orlando hasn't indicated that Wagner is dealing with any sort of setback, however, so the team could just be exercising some caution by holding him out Thursday. Tristan da Silva appears to be the most likely candidate to replace Wagner in the starting lineup for the matchup with the Hornets.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Just misses double-double in return
Wagner (ankle) chipped in 18 points (6-16 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds and two assists over 27 minutes during Thursday's 118-111 win over the Grizzlies in Berlin.
Wagner, who had been out since Dec. 9 due to a sprained left ankle, returned to action in his hometown and delivered a strong performance. The nine boards tied his season high, and he didn't operate with much of a playing-time restriction, as his 27 minutes weren't far off his season-long average (33.1 per game). The 24-year-old forward also played alongside his older brother for the first time in 2025-26, as Moritz Wagner made his return Sunday from a more than year-long absence due to a torn ACL.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Cleared to play in Germany
Wagner (ankle) isn't listed on the Magic's injury report for Thursday's game against Memphis in Berlin.
Wagner hasn't played since suffering a sprained left ankle Dec. 7, missing 16 straight games. The Magic kept updates on the star forward's rehab program close to the vest, but it always sounded like he was eyeing a return to the lineup Thursday in his native Germany. Wagner will likely face restrictions during his first week back in action, but the only time he has played fewer than 30 minutes this season was the game he got injured.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Not playing Sunday
Wagner (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.
Wagner's absence will extend to 16 games Sunday as he continues to recover from a left ankle sprain that he suffered against the Knicks on Dec. 7. His next chance to play is Thursday against the Grizzlies, though there doesn't appear to be a clear timeline for his return. Tristan da Silva (back) and Noah Penda should continue to see elevated roles for as long as Wagner is sidelined.

Magic's Franz Wagner: Listed out for Friday
Wagner (ankle) is out for Friday's game against the 76ers.
Orlando anticipated Wagner being able to return from a high-ankle sprain at some time this week, and the star forward is now setting his sights toward Sunday's tilt against the Pelicans as his next possible return date. Tristan da Silva should continue to start for the Magic on Friday.

Wagner (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Nets.
Wagner hasn't played since Dec. 7 due to a left high-ankle sprain, though it was reported Friday that he's expected to return "within the next week," according to Philip Rossman-Reich of OrlandoMagicDaily.com. The star forward's next opportunity to play will come Friday against the 76ers. In the meantime, Tristan da Silva, Jamal Cain and Noah Penda are candidates for increased playing time.
