Not recalling Jett from the G-League with this many injuries is hard for me to understand.

I’m glad we’ve proven we can compete even with all these guys out, but having Mo as the only C available is tough. Hopefully Goga is healthy

Come on Magic. Turn this injury bug around and take advantage of a special season guys. Pull it together

This is mega concerning. Feels like they are trying to make a point his defense is just nowhere near where it needs to be. Playing Queen Okeke and Houston over him because of defense. I am not going to panic. This has to be Harris and Fultz last year and barring a crazy run from Chuma he will probably be gone next year. Minutes will open up he just has to earn the coaches defensive trust like Houston and AB did

It's hilarious that Fultz is a GTD. How long has that been his status? Is this kind of status run unprecedented?

These injuries are sapping a lot of my excitement for Magic games, currently.

That being said:

Let's Go Magic!

He has been listed out day to day for over a month, he was questionable for the last few games.

Do we need him to prove it? :lol:

(Although I do want to know too but only because I'm interested in the other players that are listed as questionable)

I would be good money on him being out at this point. He's been listed as questionable for over a month or so and still hasn't played.
