Magic's Moritz Wagner: Light minutes in season debut
Wagner (knee) registered eight points (3-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and two assists across 10 minutes in Sunday's 128-118 win over the Pelicans.
Wagner made his season debut Sunday, after he had been sidelined for the Magic's first 39 games of the campaign while completing his recovery from Jan. 8, 2025, surgery to repair a torn ACL in his left knee. Before he sustained the knee injury last season, Wagner had been regularly serving as the top backup to Wendell Carter, who missed Sunday's game due to a right hip strain. As a result, Goga Bitadze moved into the starting five Sunday, but it's unclear if the Magic will have room in the rotation for both Bitadze and Wagner once Carter is back to full health. Even if Wagner continues to maintain a regular role on the second unit, the Magic are likely to ramp him up slowly, given he's coming off the major knee injury.

Magic's Goga Bitadze: Double-double in Sunday's start
Bitadze ended Sunday's 128-118 win over the Pelicans with 14 points (7-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt), 13 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and three steals in 32 minutes.
With Wendell Carter (hip) ruled out, Bitadze made his first start of the season and played a season high in minutes, and he responded with his first double-double. The 26-year-old center hadn't played more than 20 minutes since Oct. 29 however, and unless Carter's injury proved to be more serious than expected, Bitadze will have a hard time following up this performance, especially with Moritz Wagner (knee) also back and looking for minutes in the frontcourt.

Magic's Paolo Banchero: Teases triple-double Sunday
Banchero finished Sunday's 128-118 victory over the Pelicans with 23 points (7-16 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 9-10 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists, one block and one steal over 39 minutes.
The eight assists represented Banchero's best distribution numbers in January, while the fourth-year forward scored more than 20 points for the sixth time in the last eight games. Over that span, he's averaging 24.0 points, 10.0 boards, 6.3 assists, 1.1 threes and 0.9 blocks.

Magic's Anthony Black: Productive in Sunday's win
Black produced 26 points (9-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 5-7 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and three steals across 36 minutes during Sunday's 128-118 win over the Pelicans.
The third-year guard scored 20-plus points for the ninth time in the last 14 games, while the three steals represented Black's best defensive effort since Nov. 28. Over that 14-game stretch, Black is averaging 20.7 points, 5.1 assists, 4.3 boards, 2.4 threes and 1.4 steals.

Magic's Desmond Bane: Pops for game-high 27
Bane finished Sunday's 128-118 victory over the Pelicans with 27 points (9-18 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-8 FT), five rebounds, four assists and two steals across 35 minutes.
The 27 points led all scorers on the afternoon, as Bane topped 20 points for the third time in six January contests. Over that stretch, the former Grizzly is averaging 19.8 points, 4.2 boards, 4.2 assists, 1.5 threes and 1.2 steals.

Magic's Goga Bitadze: Starting sans Carter
Bitadze will start against the Pelicans on Sunday.
The 26-year-old center will enter the starting five for the first time this season due to Wendell Carter (hip) being sidelined. Over five outings this month, Bitadze has averaged 5.0 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 15.6 minutes per contest.

Magic's Tristan da Silva: Available Sunday
Da Silva (back) is available for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.
After missing Friday's loss to Philadelphia, da Silva will shed his questionable tag due to back spasms and return to action Sunday. The second-year forward has started each of his last three appearances and will likely continue to see increased playing time with Jalen Suggs (knee) and Franz Wagner (ankle) unavailable. Over his last three outings, da Silva has averaged 12.3 points, 1.3 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.0 assists in 24.7 minutes per contest.

Magic's Jonathan Isaac: Available to play
Isaac (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.
Isaac will power through his illness, and he could see a slight uptick in minutes Sunday with Wendell Carter (hip) unavailable. Isaac is averaging 3.1 points and 2.8 rebounds per game this season.

Magic's Wendell Carter: Ruled out for Sunday
Carter (hip) will not suit up for Sunday's game versus the Pelicans, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
With Carter unavailable for Sunday's game, Goga Bitadze will have an opportunity to start and Moritz Wagner will help fill some of the reserve center minutes in his regular-season debut. After Sunday, the Magic don't play again until Thursday, giving Carter a full four days to rest his right hip.

Magic's Wendell Carter: Questionable for Sunday
Carter is questionable to play Sunday versus the Pelicans due to a right hip strain.
Carter is a late addition to the injury report, so he'll likely be a game-time call, as the Magic will want him to go through his pregame routine before an official decision is made on his status for Sunday's game. If he can't give it a go, Goga Bitadze and Moritz Wagner would help fill the void at center.

Magic's Jonathan Isaac: Questionable for Sunday
Isaac is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Pelicans due to an illness.
Isaac is feeling under the weather and might not be able to give it a go Sunday. If he is forced to the sidelines, Jett Howard could pick up some extra minutes, and Jamal Cain could have the opportunity to get into the rotation. Check back closer to tipoff for official word on Isaac's status.

Magic's Jalen Suggs: Still sidelined
Suggs (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.
Suggs will miss a fifth consecutive contest due to a bruised right knee. The 24-year-old guard has immediately been ruled out for three consecutive games, so a return doesn't appear imminent. His next chance to play will come Thursday against New Orleans.

Magic's Tristan da Silva: Questionable for Sunday
Da Silva (bacK) is considered questionable for Sunday's game against New Orleans.
Da Silva missed Friday's game against the Pelicans due to back spasms, and the issue will keep him on the injury report ahead of Sunday's contest. With Franz Wagner (ankle) and Jalen Suggs (knee) out, da Silva would likely draw another start if available.

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 Moritz Wagner: Making season debut Sunday
The Magic announced that Wagner (knee) will be available to make his season debut Sunday against the Pelicans.
Wagner had been in the midst of a career-best season in 2024-25 before tearing the ACL in his left knee in a Dec. 21, 2024 game before undergoing surgery a few weeks later. After a year-long rehab and recovery process, Wagner has finally been cleared to play again, though he'll likely operate under a minutes restriction. Prior to getting hurt, Wagner had been serving as the top backup to starting center Wendell Carter, though it's uncertain whether he'll be able to unseat Goga Bitadze for the No. 2 role following his lengthy absence due to the knee injury.

Magic's Noah Penda: Makes little impact in first start
Penda closed with five points (2-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal over 30 minutes during Friday's 103-91 loss to Philadelphia.
The rookie forward was making his first career NBA start in a depleted Magic frontcourt, but Penda didn't take full advantage of the opportunity. The 2025 second-round pick has seen a big spike in his court time in January with both Franz Wagner (ankle) and Moritz Wagner (knee) sidelined and even Tristan da Silva (back) unavailable Friday, and over the last three games Penda is averaging 9.3 points, 7.3 boards, 2.0 steals, 1.7 blocks, 1.3 assists and 1.3 threes in 29.3 minutes.

Magic's Paolo Banchero: Teases triple-double Friday
Banchero produced 14 points (6-18 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, seven assists and one block in 37 minutes during Friday's 103-91 loss to the 76ers.
The fourth-year forward came up a few dimes shy of his fifth career triple-double, instead settling for his 12th double-double of the season. Five of those double-doubles have come in the last seven games, a stretch in which Banchero is averaging 24.1 points, 10.3 boards, 6.0 assists, 1.3 threes and 0.9 blocks while shooting 50.8 percent from the floor.

Magic's Anthony Black: Strikes for 21 against Philly
Black chipped in 21 points (7-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and four assists over 37 minutes during Friday's 103-91 loss to the 76ers.
It was an strong bounce-back performance for Black, who has scored just 11 total points over the prior two games. The third-year guard continues to see elevated usage with a number of key Magic players on the shelf, including Jalen Suggs (knee), and Black has started 15 straight contests, averaging 19.1 points, 5.1 assists, 4.3 boards, 2.1 threes, 1.2 steals and 0.8 blocks over that period.
