Kyle O'Quinn (ankle) did not travel with the Raptors to Miami and will miss Saturday's game against the Heat.
O'Quinn has been playing 13.4 minutes per game this season, but has been unable to make much of a dent on the stat sheet with averages of just 5.3 points and 4.4 rebounds per game. The second-year player has been providing discerning owners with 1.1 blocks per game, but his absence can easily be made up for in the short-term.

Magic PF/C Kyle O'Quinn will not play on Saturday due to an ankle injury.
O'Quinn is averaging a steady 14 minutes per game off the bench this season, but his loss won't be felt in standard fantasy leagues. We'll consider him day-to-day until details of his injury are disclosed.

Kyle O'Quinn scored 14 points on 6-of-8 shooting with six rebounds and four blocks in 22 minutes off the bench on Friday.
O'Quinn doesn't profile as a guy to get many minutes off the bench and got these numbers in garbage time, but if he plays like this more often perhaps that calculus can change. For now he can be ignored in most formats.

Kyle O'Quinn had 10 points, nine rebounds, five assists and two blocks on 5-of-12 shooting Tuesday.
Nikola Vucevic and Tobias Harris sat this one out, so O'Quinn took advantage of the minutes. He's probably going to get some back up minutes for the Magic big men this season, but as long as Vucevic is healthy, it's hard to see O'Quinn holding any fantasy value.

Kyle O'Quinn made a rare start at PF on Saturday, but he fouled out with just four points (2-of-10 FGs) and six rebounds in 24 minutes.
Jacque Vaughn started O'Quinn to better match up with Kevin Garnett and the Celtics' frontcourt, but his lineup tweaks amounted to beans in a 32-point drubbing in Orlando. It seems Jason Terry's comments about the Magic being "terrible" didn't do much to fire them up.

Kyle O'Quinn had 10 points and eight boards off the Magic bench on Monday, despite playing just 12 minutes.
Starter Nikola Vucevic is back in action, meaning O'Quinn no longer holds much fantasy value. But he's certainly still worth keeping a close eye on after tonight's big game in such limited minutes.

Kyle O'Quinn had two points, seven rebounds and one block off the bench vs. Atlanta, before fouling out in 23 minutes.
The Magic rookie had a nice run at center while Nikola Vucevic was out, but with Vuc back there is no reason to keep O'Quinn. Just file away his numbers as a starter for future reference -- 12.5 points on 66.7 percent shooting, 7.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 0.8 blocks in 29 minutes per game.

Kyle O'Quinn cooled off against the Wizards on Friday with four points, four boards, four assists and two blocks in 22 minutes.
The two blocks help his case tonight, but those that picked him up following his 23-point outburst are likely disappointed. Andrew Nicholson returned and stole some of his thunder, but O'Quinn shouldn't be hastily cut unless it's to pick up a hot free agent.

Kyle O'Quinn made another start at center on Wednesday and exploded for a career-high 23 points to go along with 11 rebounds, six assists and a steal on 11-of-14 shooting.
He didn't have a block tonight, but it's hard to be anything but excited about this line if you happened to roll the dice on him. He'll continue to get run as long as Nikola Vucevic is out, but keep in mind that this is probably as good as it's going to get all year, as he was going up against Bismack Biyombo and the Bobcats tonight. If you need a center, O'Quinn should be serviceable for as long as Vucevic sits with his concussion.

Kyle O'Quinn scored 12 points on 6-of-7 shooting with six rebounds and one block in 23 minutes on Monday against the Heat.
If you bought into O'Quinn due to Nikola Vucevic's concussion this is what you signed up for, and by virtue of that it is a win. It's starting to sound based on beat writer comments that Vucevic could miss some substantial time, but they have not come out and said that.
