Jalen Suggs - Going through pregame warmupsSuggs (ankle) is participating in warmups but remains a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans, Dan Savage of the Magic's official site reports.

ImpactSuggs has missed the last two games due to a sprained right ankle, so it's a good sign that he's getting some work in prior to Wednesday's tip. However, it still isn't clear if he'll be available against the Pelicans. If Suggs is ultimately unable to go, R.J. Hampton would pick up another start in his place.

Mo Bamba - Pulls down 15 boardsBamba finished with nine points (4-11 FG, 1-6 3Pt) and 15 rebounds across 22 minutes in Tuesday's 102-99 loss to the Suns.

ImpactDespite playing fewer than 25 minutes for the third straight game, Bamba finished with his most rebounds since Nov. 29, when he grabbed 17 in a loss to the 76ers. Though it was foul trouble and the Magic being on the wrong side of a blowout that resulted in his minutes tailing off the past two games, Bamba's lack of extended run Tuesday looks to have been a coach's decision. Bamba doesn't appear in imminent danger of losing hold on his starting role, though he may lose out on playing time down the stretch while the Magic look to make room in the lineup for Chuma Okeke.
