The Magic recalled Jefferson from the G League's Lakeland Magic on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Mohamed Bamba (lower leg) could be in danger of missing a second straight game Tuesday in Oklahoma City, so Jefferson will rejoin the Magic and potentially dress as the team's third-string center in that contest. Jefferson, one of the Magic's two-way players, has seen action in just one NBA game this season. Over 31 outings with Lakeland, the Duke product is averaging 17.7 points, 11.4 boards and 3.6 assists in 33.5 minutes per game.

Jefferson played four minutes off the bench Monday in the Magic's 125-100 loss to the Hornets, tallying two points (0-1 FG, 2-2 FT) and one rebound.

EDGE Analysis

Jefferson, who went undrafted out of Duke in 2017, was actually a two-way player for the Timberwolves as a rookie, but never logged any NBA action and was instead deployed exclusively in the G League. He's remained a fixture in the G League again in 2018-19 -- this time with the Lakeland Magic -- but the opportunity arose for him to dress for Orlando on Monday with all of D.J. Augustin (ankle), Jonathon Simmons (ankle) and Timofey Mozgov (knee) sitting out. Jefferson finally made his long-awaited NBA debut in garbage time, but his performance probably wasn't anything that will convince coach Steve Clifford to include him in the rotation in future contests.

The Magic transferred Caupain to the G League's Lakeland Magic on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Jefferson, a two-way player, has yet to see any action at the NBA level this season and was likely just up with the parent club for a brief period to fit in some practice time. He's averaging 17.2 points, 11.3 boards and 3.3 assists per game with Lakeland in 2018-19.

Jefferson tallied 15 points (7-12 FG, 1-2 FT), 14 rebounds, four assists, one steal and one blocked shot in the win Friday over Grand Rapids.

EDGE Analysis

Jefferson put together an efficient double-double, claiming a nearly 25 percent share of the team's total rebounds Friday. The two-way player has been an effective big man for Lakeland, averaging 17.7 points and 11.0 rebounds in 12 games this season.

Jefferson registered 20 points (9-13 FG, 2-3 FT), 13 rebounds and one assist in the win Wednesday over the Drive.

EDGE Analysis

Jefferson hasn't provided fantasy owners much in the way of assists, steals or blocks this season, but his rebounding prowess more than makes up for his lack of peripheral stats. The 25-year-old forward is averaging 17.1 points, 11.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists through nine games this season.

Jefferson tallied 20 points, 18 rebounds and two assists over 44 minutes against the Bayhawks on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

While his stat line benefited fantasy owners, Jefferson posted a minus-26 rating and committed a game-high six turnovers as Lakeland lost their second consecutive game to start the season. Even still, Jefferson led the team in minutes Saturday and will continue to be an upper-level option in G League formats when he's not at the NBA level with the Magic.

Jefferson and the Magic agreed to a two-way contract on Friday, Shams Charania of Yahoo Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jefferson, who went undrafted out of Duke in 2017, spent all of last season in the G-League with the Timberwolves' affiliate, the Iowa Wolves. There, he earned All G-League 2nd Team honors by averaging 17.8 points, 12.8 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.1 steals while shooting 62.3 percent from the field. In signing a two-way contract, he'll once again spend the majority of the season in the G-League, but can be at the NBA level for up to 45 days.

Jefferson accumulated six points (3-8 FG, 0-2 FT), 15 rebounds and two assists across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 64-59 summer league loss to the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

Jefferson led the Timberwolves in rebounding Wednesday, which included four boards on the offensive end. He was a staple for Minnesota's G-League affiliate, the Iowa Wolves, last season, starting in 46 of his 47 appearances and averaging 17.8 points and 12.8 rebounds while shooting 62.3 percent from the field.

Jefferson tallied 15 points (6-11 FG, 3-4 FT), 13 rebounds and one steal across 31 minutes during Sunday's 103-92 summer league win over the Raptors.

EDGE Analysis

Jefferson has now put together back-to-back double-doubles to start the Las Vegas Summer League and boasts averages of 13.5 points, 13.4 rebounds and 1.0 steal across 29.7 minutes. The 6-foot-9 forward has been a key contributor on the boards and if he continues to play this well, he could earn himself a longer look for a potential roster spot down the line.

Jefferson offered 12 points (6-10 FG, 0-4 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 28 minutes during the Timberwolves' 70-69 loss to the Nuggets in a Las Vegas Summer League contest Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The 2017 undrafted free agent made quite the impression Friday, pacing the Timberwolves first unit in scoring and the team in rebounds. Jefferson never saw playing time at the NBA level last season, but he brings a long frame to the power forward position. He'll look to make an impression during summer league play in the hopes of enjoying expanded opportunity this coming preseason.
