Jameer Nelson (ankle) is not expected to play on Wednesday.

Nelson has been sidelined since the end of March and will likely wind up missing the final regular season game. Beno Udrih, who has been an excellent start since Nelson went down, will finish the season on a strong note and a critical waiver wire pickup.

Jameer Nelson (ankle) will not play on Monday vs. Chicago.

Nelson has been sidelined since March 30 and it's a very real possibility his season is over with just one game remaining after Monday. Beno Udrih will continue to play heavy minutes as the starting point guard and is a must-own player.

Jameer Nelson (ankle) did not attend shootaround and will not play Saturday night.

Nelson hasn't played since injuring the ankle March 29. The Magic have just two games left after Saturday night, but at this point, it would be pretty surprising if he played again this season. Beno Udrih will continue to start as long as Nelson sits.

Jameer Nelson (ankle) will not play Wednesday night against the Bucks.

Nelson was incredibly doubtful to play so it's to no one's surprise he was officially ruled out before tip-off. Considering the lack of a timetable and the minimal amount of games left for Orlando, it's certainly possible Nelson will sit the rest of the season. Beno Udrih will get the start again Wednesday night.

Jameer Nelson (ankle) did not go through shootaround on Wednesday and "almost certainly" will not play vs. Milwaukee.

Nelson has missed five straight and another absence would make it his sixth. He's without a timetable to return, meaning Beno Udrih, who is averaging 18.2 points, 7.8 assists, 1.8 steals and 2.0 3-pointers while starting at point guard for Orlando, will likely draw another start and play heavy minutes.

Jameer Nelson (ankle), who has missed five straight games, is without a timetable to return.

"Jameer is day-to-day for us," Jacque Vaughn said. Nelson will be evaluated on a daily basis, but it's not clear how much more tim ehe might be forced to miss. Beno Udrih has been rolling in Nelson's absence with averages of 18.2 points, 4.0 rebounds, 7.8 assists, 1.8 steals and 2.0 3-pointers as a starter, so as long as Nelson is out, Udrih is a must-start player in every format.

Jameer Nelson (ankle) won't play on Sunday vs. the Cavaliers.

Nelson sat out Friday's game and will likely need to practice before returning, so this is a rather predictable update. Beno Udrih has been excellent while filling in as the starting PG, and he's worth deploying in all formats if you need points, 3-pointers, assists and steals.
