Brazdeikis will come off the bench during Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers, Dan Savage of the Magic's official site reports.

With Franz Wagner returning from a two-game absence due to an ankle injury, Brazdeikis -- who drew his first NBA start during Sunday's loss to the Knicks -- will return to his usual bench role.

Brazdeikis closed with 13 points (5-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 0-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal in 37 minutes during Sunday's 118-88 loss to New York.
EDGE Analysis
Making his first career start, Brazdeikis led all players in minutes and turned in a respectable stat line, despite the blowout loss. The former Michigan standout spent much of the year in the G League, but he's begun to see more minutes of late with the Magic in full-on tank mode. Sunday marked Brazdeikis' fourth straight double-digit scoring game.
