He may have avoided the proverbial “worst trouble” but Franz Wagner he is paying dearly for the clumsy intervention against him, albeit voluntary, by the New York Knicks coach Ariel Hukporti which caused him an ankle injury at the beginning of December.
Wagner is out for almost a month they Orlando Magic don’t know yet when their star can return. Coach Jamahl Mosley he was unable to give any particular updates following the narrow defeat suffered against the Toronto Raptors by 107-106: “We still don’t have a date for the return, nor a precise road map” ergo, Franz Wagner remains out a indefinite period.
I Magic (18-15) are in the running for the playoffs e play-in in the East and over at Wagner they have due to injury Jalen Suggswho got hurt in NBA Cup semifinal on December 13th against the Knicks. Paolo Banchero And returned just when Franz Wagner he had to stop, and in the last 11 games he struggled to find rhythm and shooting percentages. Against Toronto he missed a potential game-winning shot late but finished with a triple-double 23 points, 15 rebounds and 10 assists and a promising test.
At full strength, the Magic can be a fearsome team from a playoff perspective but in addition to Franz Wagner and Suggs, he is also out Moe Wagner. With the absences it emerged Anthony Blacka third-year player who is averaging over 20 points per game as a starter.
