Monte Morris - Posts quality line in 24 minutes Morris finished with 10 points (4-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt), six assists, one rebound and one steal in 24 minutes Saturday in the Wizards' 138-118 win over the Magic.
Impact Morris delivered some solid if unspectacular numbers across the board in the win and has quietly enjoyed a nice run of production over the past six games, averaging 13.3 points, 6.0 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.8 three-pointers in 28.0 minutes per contest. The point guard's scoring output is inflated by 56.1 percent shooting from the field and 52.4 percent shooting from three-point range, however, and Morris continues to face a threat for playing time in the defensive-minded Delon Wright, who logged 24 minutes Saturday. Though the two guards occasionally share the court together, Wright still poses a bigger challenge to Morris' playing time than he does to shooting guard Bradley Beal.

R.J. Hampton - Off injury report The Magic don't include Hampton (illness) on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Celtics, Khobi Price of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Impact Hampton thus looks on track to be available Monday after he sat out Saturday's 138-118 loss to the Wizards due to a non-COVID-19-related illness. Even though he'll suit up Monday, Hampton hasn't been a regular part of head coach Jamahl Mosley's rotation and isn't likely to see the floor outside of a garbage-time situation.

Chuma Okeke - Not available Monday Okeke (knee) will remain out for Monday's game against the Celtics, Khobi Price of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Impact Okeke was due for a re-evaluation on his left knee earlier this weekend after undergoing an arthroscopic procedure one month ago, but the Magic have yet to provide an update on where he stands in his recovery. With no news that the young forward has resumed practicing in any capacity, Okeke can likely be safely ruled out for the entirety of the Magic's upcoming four-game week.

Bol Bol - Posts four blocks from bench Bol chipped in 11 points (4-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds and four blocks over 16 minutes during Saturday's 138-118 loss to Washington.
Impact Bol played just under nine minutes in the fourth quarter and managed nine points on 3-of-7 shooting from the floor while adding three rebounds and three blocks. He finished with a game-high four blocks in the contest, which also matched his season high as the big man continues to be a solid contributor for the Magic when called upon. Bol has also scored at least 10 points in three straight despite averaging only 18 minutes per game over that stretch.
