Rips away three steals in win Suggs finished Wednesday's 128-122 victory over the Cavaliers with 12 points (4-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, four assists and three steals in 32 minutes.

Impact This was Suggs' fifth straight game with at least two steals, and he's been flirting with third-round value during that stretch with averages of 14.6 points, 5.2 assists, 2.2 triples and 2.2 steals per game. Suggs should have a good chance to keep the streak going Thursday against the Wizards, who commit the third-most turnovers per game this season.

Impact Sunday marked Suggs' ninth game of the season with at least 20 points.

Comes close to double-double Suggs had 10 points (5-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds, nine assists, two blocks and two steals over 26 minutes during Tuesday's 126-109 win over the Wizards.

Impact Suggs finished just one assist away from a double-double, but there are some encouraging signs with the veteran floor general -- even if he's not putting up the kind of scoring numbers he's used to. He has recorded 25-plus minutes in back-to-back starts, and that's huge since he hadn't done that since early February. Once Suggs shakes off the rust from his shot, he should see an uptick in his scoring numbers as well. Since returning to the hardwood three games ago, Suggs has made just four of his 16 three-pointers while shooting 31.3 percent from the floor.

Returns to normal workload Suggs closed with 14 points (4-17 FG, 4-13 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one block over 26 minutes during Sunday's 106-92 loss to the Pistons.

Impact After logging just 13 minutes off the bench in Thursday's loss to Houston, Suggs returned to his typical spot in the starting lineup and doubled up on his playing time. The 2021 first-rounder has been in and out of the Orlando lineup all year long, but it seems like he's ready to handle his usual workload going forward. Over his last eight appearances, Suggs has averaged 12.0 points, 6.3 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 2.4 steals and 1.6 blocks in 26.2 minutes per game.

Starting Sunday Suggs will start against the Pistons on Sunday.

Impact Suggs returned from a three-game absence due to a back issue in Thursday's loss to Houston, posting three points (1-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two steals, one rebound and one block over 13 minutes off the bench. However, he'll return to the first unit Sunday due to Anthony Black (quadriceps) being sidelined. Still, it wouldn't be surprising to see Suggs remain on a minutes restriction.

Non-factor in return Suggs posted three points (1-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, two steals and one block over 13 minutes during Orlando's 113-108 loss to Houston on Thursday.

Impact Suggs came off the bench Thursday in his return from a three-game absence due to a back strain. The fifth-year guard struggled to get anything going and led the team with four turnovers while finishing with a minus-11 point differential. Suggs seemed to be out of rhythm, which led to him playing just three minutes in the second half while sitting on the bench for the entire fourth quarter. He'll look to bounce back Sunday against the Pistons.

To be deployed off bench Suggs will come off the bench Thursday against the Rockets.

Impact The Magic evidently like the way the starting five has been playing together, so they'll elect to utilize Suggs off the bench in his return from a three-game absence. This will mark the first time this season that the 24-year-old has served in a bench role.

FEBRUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Thursday Suggs (back) is available for Thursday's game against the Rockets.

Impact Suggs will see his first action since Feb. 19 after going down with a back strain. He figures to slot right back into the starting five given his absence was a short one, which would bump Tristan da Silva back to a bench role.
