EDGE Analysis
Wagner did a little bit of everything for Orlando both offensively and on the glass, ending Friday's contest second among Magic players in scoring and assists while hauling in a team-high-tying rebound total. Wagner posted his first double-digit outing in his last three contests, and he has tallied at least 15 points, four rebounds and four assists in three appearances.

Wagner (illness) is available for Friday's matchup against the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis

However, with Paolo Banchero (oblique) out, Wagner is expected to return as the Magic's top offensive option. Through five regular-season outings, Wagner has averaged 17.8 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.8 steals-plus-blocks while shooting 51.6 percent from the field across 26.0 minutes per game. The 23-year-old has also scored 20-plus points in three games thus far.

Head coach Jamahl Mosley said Wednesday that Wagner was feeling "a little under the weather" during Orlando's 102-99 loss to Chicago on Wednesday, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel. Wagner exited with 10:35 left in the fourth quarter and did not return.
EDGE Analysis
Wagner also exited Monday's game against the Pacers early with an illness, so the sickness isn't a new issue. Wagner logged seven points (3-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four assists, three rebounds, a steal and a block across 23 minutes before leaving. He'll have a day to recover before Orlando travels to Cleveland to face the Cavaliers on Friday.

Wagner (illness) has been ruled out for the rest of Monday's game against the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
Wagner was questionable for Monday's game due to an illness, but he was able to suit up after going through pregame warmups. However, he was on the bench to begin the second half and he will not return to the game, and he'll end his night with seven points, one rebound, one assist and one steal across 11 minutes. Gary Harris, Anthony Black and Cole Anthony should all see increased work while Wagner is sidelined.

Wagner (illness) is available to play against Indiana on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
An illness had Wagner tagged as a game-time decision, but the 2021 first-round pick is good to go for Monday's contest. Through the first three games of the regular season, Wagner is averaging 25.0 points, 5.7 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.7 steals across 32.0 minutes per game.

Wagner is questionable for Monday's game against the Pacers due to an illness.
EDGE Analysis
Wagner was a late addition to the injury report, which doesn't bode well for his availability Monday. He joins Goga Bitadze (foot), Jonathan Isaac (hip) and Tristan da Silva (illness) as questionable, so the Magic may be extremely shorthanded versus Indiana.
