Watson's (calf) return to game action doesn't appear imminent, Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Watson will sit out a 21st consecutive game Wednesday against the Rockets due to a left calf injury that has been far more persistent than the Magic initially anticipated. The veteran point guard experienced swelling on his left knee after he was cleared to increase his activity earlier this month, and it appears that setback has put his return date in flux. Watson said the swelling has since subsided a bit, but he continues to feel pain in the upper area of the calf and near the back of the knee. With the 31-year-old out indefinitely, the Magic will rely on Shabazz Napier and Victor Oladipo to initiate offense for the second unit.
