Top Franz Wagner News

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Balanced showcase in 25-point game

    Wagner notched 25 points (10-21 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, three assists and three steals across 33 minutes during Sunday's 113-88 win over the Bucks.

    Wagner helped Orlando to a win in the regular-season finale Sunday by ending as one of two Magic players with 25 or more points to go along with a team-leading trio of threes and a handful of rebounds in a balanced outing. Wagner surpassed the 25-point mark in 16 games this season, rounding out the regular season by scoring 20 or more points in five of his final six outings.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Scores 24 points vs. 76ers

    Wagner posted 24 points (9-18 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 35 minutes during Friday's 125-113 loss to Philadelphia.

    Wagner returned from a two-game absence due to a right ankle sprain Friday and led the Magic in scoring. He has shot 50.0 percent or better from the field in each of his last five games, scoring 20-plus points in four of them. Orlando will need all of Wagner's scoring for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Bucks, as a loss could drop the Magic out of the top six in the Eastern Conference.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Good to go against Philadelphia

    Wagner is available and in the starting lineup for Friday's game versus the 76ers.

    Wagner has been upgraded from questionable to available Friday after missing Orlando's last two games with a right ankle sprain. The 22-year-old forward should replace Caleb Houstan in the starting five against Philadelphia.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Questionable for Friday's game

    Wagner (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the 76ers.

    Wagner has missed the last two games due to a right ankle sprain, and it's unclear whether he'll be back in action for Orlando's penultimate regular-season game. Caleb Houstan and Markelle Fultz will likely continue to see increased playing time if Wagner sits once again.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Won't play against Milwaukee

    Wagner (ankle) is out for Wednesday's game versus the Bucks.

    Wagner will miss his second straight contest Wednesday due to a right ankle sprain. In his absence, Caleb Houstan and Markelle Fultz will likely continue to receive increased playing time. Wagner's next chance to suit up is Friday's matchup with Philadelphia.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Questionable for Wednesday

    Wagner (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.

    Wagner was unable to play Tuesday against the Rockets after picking up his ankle injury Sunday. The questionable tag suggests that he's day-to-day, but the Magic may err on the side of caution with the playoffs looming.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Won't play Tuesday

    Wagner (ankle) is out for Tuesday's game against the Rockets, Adam Spolane of Sports Radio 610 Houston reports.

    Wagner left Sunday's game against the Bulls with a sprained right ankle, and the Magic won't risk him considering the team already secured a playoff berth. It's highly unlikely that he'll be able to play in the second half of the back-to-back set against the Bucks on Wednesday, and it wouldn't be surprising if the Magic decide to rest him until the start of the postseason. This means Joe Ingles and Anthony Black could be in line to see extra minutes vs. Houston.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Present at shootaround

    Wagner is listed as questionable due to a right ankle sprain but was present during Orlando's morning shootaround ahead of Tuesday's game against the Rockets, Philip Rossman-Reich of OrlandoMagicDaily.com reports.

    Wagner sprained his right ankle during Sunday's win over the Bulls and didn't return. An MRI confirmed the sprain, but it's encouraging that Orlando is still giving him a chance to suit up Tuesday. The Magic have four games remaining in the regular season, including two against the Bucks, who hold a one-game lead over Orlando for the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Questionable for Tuesday

    Wagner (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Houston, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

    An MRI confirmed a right ankle sprain for Wagner that he suffered Sunday against the Bulls. He wasn't able to return to that contest, but the good news for Orlando is that this appears to be a day-to-day issue. The Magic could use a committee approach to soak up Wagner's minutes if he's unable to play, with players like Joe Ingles, Gary Harris, Cole Anthony, Anthony Black or Caleb Houstan possibly benefitting.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Heads to locker room

    Wagner went to the locker room in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Bulls due to an apparent right ankle injury, Dan Savage of the Magic's official site reports.

    Wagner appeared to twist his ankle early in the third quarter and ended up heading to the locker room to get the injury checked out. While he's off the floor, Joe Ingles and Anthony Black could see more action. Wagner should be considered questionable to return.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Sprains ankle, won't return

    Wagner has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Bulls with a right ankle sprain. He'll finish with 16 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal across 20 minutes.

    Wagner twisted his ankle in the third quarter, and though X-rays came back negative, he could still be dealing with a sprain that's significant enough to cost him some time. Notably, Wagner sprained the same ankle in January and missed eight consecutive contests. If Wagner isn't ready to play in the Magic's next game Tuesday in Houston, the team could turn to Joe Ingles, Gary Harris and Cole Anthony for more minutes on the wing, while one of Anthony Black or Caleb Houstan (ankle) would likely enter Orlando's 10-man rotation.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Scores team-high 20 points

    Wagner logged 20 points (6-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 7-9 FT), six rebounds and one assist across 33 minutes during Monday's 104-103 victory over the Trail Blazers.

    Wagner led the way in scoring for the Magic in this tight win Monday, and the small forward continues to be a remarkably consistent scorer for Orlando. He's now scored in double digits in 13 games in a row, a span in which he's averaging 16.6 points per game while shooting 47.9 percent from the field.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Extends scoring run Friday

    Wagner finished with 13 points (5-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 36 minutes during Friday's 100-97 loss to the Clippers.

    Wagner didn't have his best shooting performance and failed to drain a three-pointer for the fifth time over his last seven games. Still, he managed to extend his run of games with double-digit points to 11 appearances. He's averaging 16.6 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game in that stretch, solidifying his place as the Magic's second-best offensive alternative behind Paolo Banchero even if he's had a few ups and downs in that span.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Sniffs double-double in win

    Wagner produced 22 points (8-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and one block in 30 minutes during Sunday's 111-96 victory over Toronto.

    Paolo Banchero is firmly entrenched as the Magic's go-to player on offense, but Wagner certainly makes his presence felt as a reliable scorer and rebounder, too. Even though Wagner has yet to record a double-double this season, he's shown he can make things happen on both ends of the court, averaging 16.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.1 steals per game since the beginning of March.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Busy on defense Wednesday

    Wagner chipped in 14 points (6-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, six assists and three steals in 28 minutes during Wednesday's 114-106 victory over Brooklyn.

    The third-year forward posted his best steals total since Feb. 14 while supplying his usual steady offense. Wagner has scored in double digits in 10 of 11 games since the All-Star break, averaging 15.5 points, 4.9 boards, 3.3 assists and 1.0 steals over that stretch, but he's struggled to find his shot from the outside, going 7-for-43 (16.3 percent) from three-point range.
