ESPN Reports: Phoenix Suns have just brought back another dominant NBA player from overseas for their bench in a blockbuster deal worth…..Read more

It is not likely that the Phoenix Suns will have to face Franz Wagner, who is widely considered to be one of the most talented young players in the league, when they finish their short road trip against the Orlando Magic on Sunday.

According to the Magic, Wagner will undergo a reevaluation approximately four weeks from now due to a torn right oblique, which will cause him to be sidelined for an undetermined amount of time.

The injury was received by Wagner on Friday night, and he will undergo a reevaluation in a period of four weeks. It has been stated by the team that his return will be contingent on how he reacts to the treatment.

It is a devastating blow to the Magic franchise since both of their key forwards, Paolo Banchero and Wagner, have suffered torn oblique injuries. This news has been devastating to the Magic franchise. Banchero has not performed since the 30th of October. “Wagner has put together an All-Star worthy season: 24.4 points, 5.7 assists and 5.6 rebounds per game and lifting Orlando to a third-place 16-9 record in the East.”

Despite the fact that Orlando has been one of the stronger teams in the league to begin the 2024-25 season, the fact that they have lost two of their best players has undoubtedly put a damper on their present success.

We will see how the Magic are able to recover in their absence. This season, the Suns have been plagued by injuries, and players like Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal, and Jusuf Nurkic have been forced to miss time due to the injury bug.

The Suns have also struggled with injuries of their own accord. The club is currently on a road trip, and Durant and Nurkic are not expected to play against Orlando on Sunday since they are not available.

At the moment, Phoenix is in possession of the seventh seed in the Western Conference, with a record of 12-9. Before departing for Orlando the following day, the Suns will play a game against the Miami Heat tonight.
