Impact 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.

Iffy for Friday Richardson is questionable for Friday's game against the 76ers with left ankle soreness.

Scores 20 points with one block Carter totaled 20 points (8-14 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 39 minutes during Wednesday's 104-103 overtime win over Brooklyn.

Impact This was a nice bounce-back performance from Carter, who was held to a season-low two points on 1-for-6 shooting his last time out. He also came through with a block after failing to swat any shots in his previous four outings. Carter will look to keep it going Friday versus the 76ers.

Struggles with shot in win Black provided five points (2-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt), four rebounds, six assists and two steals across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 104-103 overtime win over the Nets.

Impact Black has been struggling over the past two games, going 5-for-21 from the floor and 1-for-9 from distance. The third-year guard has hit a rough patch, but he was playing well enough before this cold streak to justify holding in standard formats.

Needs 14 shots to score nine points Bane notched nine points (4-14 FG, 1-6 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and two steals over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 104-103 overtime victory over the Nets.

Impact Bane got himself into some early foul trouble, which played a role in him going scoreless through the first half of action with just one shot attempt over 11 minutes. He didn't do much better over the second half, and despite the game going to overtime, Bane was held to single digits in the scoring department for just the fourth time this season. He'll look to get things back on track Friday versus Philadelphia.

Drills game winner Banchero generated 30 points (11-19 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-8 FT), 14 rebounds and six assists across 43 minutes of Wednesday's 104-103 overtime win over Brooklyn.

Impact Banchero banked in the game-winning three-pointer in overtime, a shot that also allowed him to hit the 30-point mark for the second time in four games. He had scored 30 points just once in 24 appearances before that four-game stretch. The standout forward also turned the ball over a season-high nine times Wednesday. On the year, Banchero is averaging 21.1 points, 8.6 rebounds and 4.7 assists over 33.4 minutes per game.
