Impact Wagner has been upgraded from questionable to available Thursday after missing Orlando's previous 20 contests due to a torn right oblique.

Cole Anthony - Iffy for Thursday Anthony (illness) is questionable for Thursday's game against Portland.
Impact After missing Tuesday's game against the Raptors with an illness, Anthony's game status remains up in the air against the Blazers. The Magic will likely wait until closer to Thursday's tipoff before updating the guard's designation. If Anthony remains out, Anthony Black would be primed to make another spot start at point guard for Orlando.

Jonathan Isaac - Iffy for Thursday Isaac (illness) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Impact Isaac left Tuesday's game after just five minutes of action as he attempted to play through his illness. He remains day-to-day, however. Franz Wagner (conditioning) could potentially make his return Thursday, making minutes even harder to come by for Isaac.

Franz Wagner - Upgraded to questionable Wagner (oblique) has been upgraded to questionable for Thursday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Impact Sidelined since Dec. 6 due to a torn right oblique, Wagner appears to be on the cusp of returning to Orlando's lineup. The Magic have the star forward listed as questionable due to return-to-play conditioning, so if he doesn't play Thursday, he would appear to have a good chance of returning Saturday against the Pistons. If Wagner remains out against Portland, Tristan da Silva would likely continue starting for the Magic.

Jalen Suggs - Another absence coming Suggs (back) will not play Thursday against Portland.

Impact Caldwell-Pope reached at least 20 points for the fourth time this season, finishing four points shy of his season-best mark (24). Cole Anthony (illness) joined a growing injury report in Orlando, so there were plenty of shots up for grabs Tuesday. Caldwell-Pope has been hot from beyond the arc in January with a 40.4 percent mark.
