Jonathan Isaac - Operating on minutes restriction Coach Jamahl Mosley said Isaac will limited to around 14-16 minutes during Wednesday's game versus the Knicks, Jake Chapman of the Magic Radio Network reports.
Impact Isaac has dealt with extensive injuries throughout his career, and the Magic will be cautious with him on the second night of a back-to-back Wednesday. Isaac is averaging 5.4 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.2 blocks in 18.0 minutes across his last five outings.

Caleb Houstan - Moves into starting lineup Houstan will start Wednesday's game against the Knicks, Wendell Epps of Bally Sports Florida reports.
Impact With Markelle Fultz (rest), Jalen Suggs (groin) and Gary Harris (calf) all out, Houstan and Anthony Black will move into the starting lineup, while Cole Anthony and Joe Ingles figure to see elevated roles off the bench. As a starter this season (seven games), Houstan has averaged 9.4 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 26.7 minutes, but that includes a 25-point outing (Jan. 7 versus Atlanta) and a scoreless performance (Jan. 19 versus Philadelphia).

Anthony Black - Draws start Wednesday Black is starting Wednesday's game against the Knicks.
Impact Black hasn't been part of Orlando's rotation in recent matchups, but he'll draw the start Wednesday since Markelle Fultz (rest), Gary Harris (calf) and Jalen Suggs (groin) have been ruled out. Over 29 starts this year, Black has averaged 5.1 points and 2.7 rebounds in 21.3 minutes per game.

Jalen Suggs - Ruled out for Wednesday Suggs has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Knicks due to right groin soreness.
Impact Suggs wasn't on Orlando's initial injury report for Wednesday's matchup, but he'll be unable to suit up during the team's final game before the All-Star break. Gary Harris (calf) has also been ruled out, so Cole Anthony and Joe Ingles are candidates to see plenty of run Wednesday.

Gary Harris - Won't play Wednesday Harris has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Knicks due to right calf injury maintenance.
Impact Harris has averaged 5.3 points in 21.0 minutes per game over six appearances in February, but he'll have a chance to rest in the second half of a back-to-back set Wednesday. His absence will also give him additional time to rest during the All-Star break. Anthony Black and Caleb Houstan are candidates to see increased run against New York.
FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE
Markelle Fultz - Will be rested Wednesday Fultz will be rested for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.
Impact Orlando continues to take precautions with Fultz's left knee during back-to-back sets. He's coming off a tough showing versus the Thunder on Tuesday, as he was held to four points with seven rebounds, four assists and one steal in 18 minutes. Cole Anthony and Anthony Black are likely to see an uptick in minutes as a result Wednesday.

Wendell Carter Jr. - Hits for 22 against OKC Carter closed with 22 points (9-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds and one assist across 31 minutes during Tuesday's 127-113 loss to the Thunder.
Impact The 24-year-old center produced at least 20 points for the first time since Jan. 26, and the third time this season. Since moving into the starting lineup 12 games ago, Carter is averaging 13.1 points, 6.7 boards, 1.6 assists and 1,3 threes while shooting 56.3 percent from the floor.
FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Suggs - Pops for 17 in Tuesday's loss Suggs supplied 17 points (5-13 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Tuesday's 127-113 loss to the Thunder.
Impact The third-year guard is still struggling to provide consistent offense, but his defensive skills are coming to the fore. Suggs has scored in double digits in only six of the last nine games while shooting 40.9 percent from the floor, but he's averaging 11.3 points, 3.6 boards, 2.9 assists, 2.4 threes and 1.9 steals over that stretch.
FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE
Paolo Banchero - Double-double in Tuesday's loss Banchero racked up 23 points (9-15 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, 10 assists and one block in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 127-113 loss to Oklahoma City.
Impact Last season's Rookie of the Year produced his 12th double-double in 54 games, and he hasn't scored below 10 points since late November. Banchero is also making a bigger impact at the defense end of late -- over the last 10 games, the 21-year-old forward is averaging 23.8 points, 7.1 assists, 6.1 boards, 1.7 threes and 1.3 steals, recording multiple pilfers five times.
