Season-high triples Wagner closed Wednesday's 135-124 victory over the Hawks with 17 points (7-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt), five rebounds and one steal in 30 minutes.

Impact Wagner posted his most efficient scoring night of the season Wednesday. His three-point shot falling is also a good sign, as the 25-year-old big man is only shooting 26.3 percent from three on 3.5 attempts through 11 games.

Second straight double-double Wagner supplied 20 points (7-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 13 rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals across 36 minutes during Wednesday's 116-111 overtime victory over the Cl...

Impact Wagner secured his second straight double-double, halting in a season-high rebounding mark while leading the team in the category. Wagner has scored in double figures four times this season, surpassing the double-digit rebound total twice.

Double-doubles in loss Wagner amassed 19 points (7-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 12 rebounds, four assists and one steal across 32 minutes before fouling out of Monday's 109-102 loss to the Bucks.

Impact With Wendell Carter (foot), Chuma Okeke (knee) and Mo Bamba (back) all out, Wagner drew a third straight start and notched his first double-double of the campaign. As a starter, he's averaged 13.3 points, 8.3 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 30.0 minutes per game.

Offers little in start Wagner racked up five points (2-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, one block and one steal over 22 minutes during Saturday's 121-108 loss to the Raptors.

Impact Wagner remained in the starting lineup Saturday but was unable to capitalize. The Magic were destroyed in this game, meaning the starters were all limited down the stretch, including Wagner. He had been putting up serviceable numbers prior to Saturday, and the fantasy mangers who streamed him could certainly give him another look when the Magic face the Bucks on Monday.

Comes close to double-double Wagner chipped in 16 points (7-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds and one assist over 36 minutes during Friday's 107-96 loss to the Cavaliers.

Impact Wagner started for the first time this season Friday, but he jumped into the starting unit solely because both Mo Bamba (back) and Wendell Carter (foot) were out. He delivered, though, reaching the 15-point mark and the 30-minute plateau for the first time in 2022-23. Wagner's place in the lineup will depend on the availability of both Bamba and Carter going forward, but he should be a productive player in case he finds himself in the lineup when the Magic take on the Raptors on Saturday.

Starting Friday Wagner will join the starting five for Friday's game against Cleveland.

Impact With Mo Bamba (back) and Wendell Carter (foot) out, Wagner is joined by Markelle Fultz, Franz Wagner, Paolo Banchero and Bol Bol in the starting lineup. Considering how thin Orlando is in the frontcourt, Wagner should see plenty of playing time Friday.

Productive all-around game in loss Wagner contributed nine points (3-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and one block in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 125-108 loss to the Hawks.

Impact Wagner played 16 minutes in the second half and dished out six assists. He had recorded only five assists through his first three appearances this year before Wednesday's eight-assist night. The 25-year-old has played in all four games since returning from a foot injury Nov. 25, playing 20.1 minutes and scoring 7.5 points per game.

Takes on larger role Sunday Wagner (foot) amassed 12 points (3-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one steal across 26 minutes during Sunday's 133-103 loss to the 76ers.

Impact After Mo Bamba (back) departed the game early, Wagner opened the second half with the starters and put together a decent line in his second appearance of the season after he had missed Orlando's first 18 games while recovering from a right mid-foot strain. With the statuses of Bamba and Wendell Carter (foot) -- who missed his fourth straight contest Sunday -- uncertain as the Magic head into a four-game week, Wagner could have a path to meaningful minutes in the Orlando frontcourt.

In line for season debut Friday Wagner (foot) isn't listed on the injury report for Friday's game versus the Sixers.

Impact Wagner has ramped up his practice participation of late and participated in Wednesday's session. His status for Friday was expected to be determined by how he responded to the practice and treatment, and it appears everything has gone swimmingly. He should provide the Magic with some additional frontcourt depth and could be in for some minutes Friday if Wendell Carter (foot) can't suit up.

Impact Wagner has yet to make his season debut due to a right foot strain he suffered in the preseason. While it appears that Wagner is closing in on a return either Friday or Sunday against Philadelphia, he could be limited following an extended absence to open the season.

NOVEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Remains out Monday Wagner (foot) is listed as out for Monday's game against the Pacers, Khobi Price of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

Impact Wagner has been sidelined since mid-October with the right mid-foot strain he suffered in a preseason contest and is still awaiting his 2022-23 debut. Once healthy, Wagner isn't guaranteed to have a spot in the Magic rotation, as the emergence of Bol Bol in the early stages of the season might have pushed Wagner further down in the pecking order in the frontcourt.

Impact Wagner has yet to make his 2022-23 debut while he works his way back from the right mid-foot sprain he sustained during the preseason. Once he's deemed ready to play, Wagner could challenge Mo Bamba and/or Chuma Okeke for a spot in the Magic's frontcourt rotation.
