I don’t think anyone said he is trash, I think the words used was is he has been playing like trash for most of the season. Obviously at 20 there is chance he will get better.


Jett’s 21. Caleb is still only 21. AB is 20.

Ok, that's pretty positive to hear.

Sounds like Paolo's was a bit more serious.

Yeah...don't be shocked if they come back together or Franz could even be sooner...we don't know, but good updates from both.

I think Franz will be back in a quicker timeline than Paolo.

If he does, All-Star Game, and maybe even All-NBA are still on the table.
You just want to avoid a Haliburton situation where he came back quick to not lose out on awards last year.

Are you predicting F-Wagner will miss less than 17 games this season?

Definitely seems on a faster time line but what do we know....magic likes keeping their own fans in the dark for whatever reason

Most likely. Franz benefited from the schedule, where Magic only played 4 games in the 2 weeks he’s been out. Paolo, unfortunately missed more games because our schedule was hectic.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.-John 3:16

Go Magic, Go Dwight, Go Vuc, Go Paolo, Go Keegan :)

I am. He’s only missing 9 games in December.

He’s got until mid-January.

Any update on Franz? I hope he becomes All Star this year and play in that game. Big fan of him...

So, any news on Franz? From the early reports, I got the impression that his tear wasn't quite as bad as Paolo's, so I was hopeful. But now I haven't heard anything in a while. Plus having to watch Moe's injury must have been a blow to his morale.

I just want to see our full squad (or well, Paolo+Franz+Jalen) healthy and clicking together and see what this team is really capable of. Hopefully it happens at some point this season.

I heard he was further along than Paolo was. Hopefully a couple more weeks and that’s it?

If Franz isn’t back by the Celtics game, he’ll have missed more than 17 games and is officially out of the NBA award/accolade conversation.

https://www.rotowire.com/basketball/headlines/franz-wagner-injury-not-taking-contact-yet-476607

Magic head coach Jamahl Mosley said Wednesday that Wagner (oblique) hasn't yet been cleared for contact, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports. "He's feeling better. Just form shooting more than anything," Mosley said, when asked about what kind of on-court work Wagner has been doing. "No contact at all. No conditioning pieces yet."

After he was diagnosed Dec. 7 with a right oblique tear, Wagner was scheduled to be re-evaluated in approximately four weeks. A month has since passed, but Wagner doesn't appear especially close to making his return to action, given that he's not even taking part in non-contact portions of practice.


This was Jan 8th.

More form shooting you say? Take another week, no rush!

If Franz misses as much time as Paolo did, he will be back right after the all-star break.
