Wagner’s afternoon ended after just seven minutes, during which he scored seven points (3-for-4 FG, 1-for-1 3PT) with three rebounds, one assist and one steal. He is expected to be re-evaluated when the Magic return to Orlando. Tristan da Silva started the second half in his place and should see increased minutes alongside Jonathan Isaac if Wagner is forced to miss time.
