Remains out indefinitely Harris (knee) is out for Friday's game against the Hawks and remains sidelined indefinitely following arthroscopic knee surgery in early September.

Impact The Magic are notorious for vague and infrequent injury updates, and there hasn't been any tangible news on Harris' recovery since he underwent surgery in September. It seems unlikely he'll return this month.

Misses preseason finale Harris (knee) didn't take the floor during Friday's preseason finale versus the Cavaliers.

Sitting out Tuesday Harris (knee) won't take the floor Tuesday against the Grizzlies.

Won't be ready for training camp Harris (knee) won't participate in training camp, Khobi Price of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

Impact Harris underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left knee at the end of August to repair a torn meniscus. It appears like the veteran guard will miss at least the start of the regular season, but it's unclear how long he'll be sidelined for. More information on his status should surface as the season draws closer.

Sticks with Orlando Harris and the Magic agreed to a two-year, $26 million contract Thursday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact After serving in a depth role with the Magic during the 2021-22 campaign, Harris has chosen to stay with Orlando after getting traded by the Nuggets in March of 2021. The shooting guard will likely see minutes behind Jalen Suggs, R.J. Hampton and possibly even Terrence Ross after he averaged 11.1 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.8 assists last season.

Cleared to play Harris (personal) is available for Thursday's game against the Hornets.

Impact Harris hasn't appeared in a game since March 22 but is available Thursday. That said, he may not be in the rotation.

APRIL 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Thursday Harris (personal) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Hornets.

Impact Harris hasn't appeared in a game since March 22, so his potential absence shouldn't impact Orlando's rotation. With only two games remaining in the regular season, it's unclear if he'll play again this year.

Available Wednesday Harris (knee) is available Wednesday against the Thunder.

Impact Harris is dealing with a left knee bruise but will be fine to play in a third straight game. Across his past five appearances, he's averaged 9.6 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 23.2 minutes.

MARCH 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable at OKC Harris (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Harris played 20 minutes Tuesday but may need to sit on the second night of the back-to-back set as he deals with a bruised left knee. If that's the case, more minutes could be in store for Terrence Ross, Chuma Okeke and R.J. Hampton.

MARCH 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Listed as available Harris (knee) is listed as available for Tuesday's game against Brooklyn.

Impact The veteran is shooting 43.9 percent from the floor and 39.0 percent from three -- both his best since 2017-18 -- but he still hasn't been much of a fantasy option this season. He will carry slightly more appeal in DFS contests on Tuesday, however, as the Magic will be without Jalen Suggs (ankle). R.J. Hampton will start in Suggs' place.

MARCH 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with knee contusion Harris is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Nets due to a right knee contusion.

Impact Harris played 18 minutes and totaled nine points (3-5 FG, 3-5 3Pt), three rebounds and one block during Sunday's loss to Philadelphia, but he apparently picked up the knee injury as well. Both Jalen Suggs (ankle) and Harris are questionable, so R.J. Hampton and Terrence Ross could be in store for increased roles if one or both are ruled out.

MARCH 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Dropped from rotation Harris (coach's decision) went unused off the bench Friday in the Magic's 118-110 win over the Timberwolves.

Impact Orlando had both Jalen Suggs and Markelle Fultz available for the first time since March 2, so Harris was squeezed out of the rotation as Magic head coach Jamahl Mosley handed his minutes to the two young guards. Fultz will be a candidate to sit out one half of the Magic's remaining back-to-back sets, but in standalone games, Harris doesn't look like he'll be featured on the second unit so long as all of Orlando's other key rotation pieces stay healthy.
