Watson (calf) practiced in full Wednesday and went through 5-on-5 drills, Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Watson hasn't played in a game since Nov. 9 due to a nagging calf injury, so it is pretty substantial that he was able to fully practice Wednesday. This news could mean a return to action in the next one or two games for Watson, but it is wise to temper expectations for the eighth year player for his first couple of contests. The Magic organization just traded small forward Tobias Harris to the Pistons in exchange for Brandon Jennings and Ersan Ilyasova, shaking up the entire depth chart. It is plausible to predict that Watson would slide into the backup two guard role behind Victor Oladipo and moving Evan Fournier to small forward, but only time will tell for sure.
