Gary Harris - Moves to starting lineup ThursdayHarris will be in the starting lineup to face the Bucks on Thursday.
ImpactHarris will play alongside Anthony Black in the backcourt due to the absence of Jalen Suggs (wrist). Though Harris has mostly played off the bench this season, playing in the starting unit is certainly not uncharted territory. That said, this will be his fourth start of the campaign, and he's averaging 8.7 points per game in those previous three contests.

Jalen Suggs - Ruled out ThursdaySuggs (wrist) won't play Thursday against the Bucks.
ImpactThe Magic will be considerably shorthanded to take on the Bucks on Thursday, and the loss of Suggs deprives them of another scoring threat, putting a lot of weight on the Franz Wagner and Paolo Banchero duo. Gary Harris will start over Suggs to face Milwaukee, and Harris' next chance to play will come against the Pacers on Saturday.
