Houstan totaled six points (2-3 FG, 2-3 3Pt) and one rebound over eight minutes during Tuesday's 121-115 loss to the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
From Nov. 26 through Dec. 29, Houstan played in 13 of Orlando's 15 contests and saw double-digit minutes in each appearance, averaging 4.5 points and 2.3 rebounds in 16.5 minutes per game. However, he totaled just 15 minutes over the last two games and will fall even farther down the depth chart when Joe Ingles (ankle) and Jonathan Isaac (hamstring) return to action.

Houstan finished with nine points (3-3 FG, 3-3 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 10 minutes during Wednesday's 139-120 victory over the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
Houstan logged at least nine minutes for the third straight game, scoring a season-high nine points. While he has been featured in the rotation over the past week, his production has left a little to be desired. At this point, there is no need to consider him outside of the deepest leagues.

Houstan (knee) is active for Tuesday's preseason contest against the Pelicans, Philip Rossman-Reich of OrlandoMagicDaily.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Houstan was sidelined for Thursday's preseason game against Cleveland due to a right ankle sprain. Orlando's frontcourt is fully healthy for Tuesday's preseason affair, so Houstan's role should resemble his regular-season expectations.

Houstan has been ruled out for Thursday's preseason game against the Cavaliers due to a right ankle sprain, Dan Savage of the Magic's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Houstan didn't play in Tuesday's preseason opener against New Orleans and is apparently dealing with a sprained right ankle. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return, but his next chance to suit up will be Oct. 17 against New Orleans.

Houstan is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Heat, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Houstan started against the Cavaliers on Thursday and scored eight points, and while he moved back to a bench role Friday against the Nets, he still logged 26 minutes. Houstan is averaging 7.3 points and 4.7 rebounds per contest in his previous three starts. The Magic will be without Paolo Banchero (back) for the third straight game to end the season.

Houstan will not start Friday's game versus the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Houstan received a spot start Thursday versus the Cavaliers but will return to a bench role Friday with Markelle Fultz (knee) and Franz Wagner (ankle) rejoining the action. After playing 30 minutes Thursday, expect Houstan's workload to decline given that he's back in his reserve role, though there still are some players sitting out for Orlando.

Houstan will start Thursday's game against the Cavaliers, Philip Rossman-Reich of OrlandoMagicDaily.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Magic are resting their entire starting lineup, so Houstan will be joined by Jalen Suggs, Chuma Okeke, Bol Bol and Moritz Wagner in the first five for Orlando's final home game of the campaign. Houstan has made just two other starts this season, totaling 14 points, 12 rebounds, two assists and two steals in 59 minutes during those contests.

Houstan had zero points (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt) in nine minutes during Tuesday's 113-108 loss to the Grizzlies.
EDGE Analysis
Houstan failed to record a single stat in the loss, continuing what has been an unproductive stretch. Despite having played in six consecutive games, he has scored a grand total of eight points, all coming in one game against the Knicks. Based on what we have seen to this point, Houstan is a long way off being fantasy relevant.

Orlando recalled Houstan from the G League's Lakeland Magic on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The addition of Houstan ahead of Tuesday's game in San Antonio will afford the Magic some extra depth at forward in the event Franz Wagner (ankle) -- who is listed as questionable -- is unable to play. Even if Wagner is ruled out for the contest, Houstan may still find himself behind Paolo Banchero, Gary Harris and Bol Bol in the pecking order for playing time at either forward spot.

Houstan recorded 17 points (6-11 FG, 5-10 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists and one block across 28 minutes during Sunday's 119-95 win over the Go-Go.
EDGE Analysis
Houstan has bounced back and forth between the NBA and the G League several times over the last two months, but he ultimately came off the bench for Lakeland on Sunday and knocked down a game-high five shots from beyond the arc. The 20-year-old guard is currently averaging 16.2 points and 5.2 rebounds per game across 11 appearances with the G League Magic.
