Wagner provided 16 points (6-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and eight assists across 30 minutes during Thursday's 121-83 victory over the Cavaliers in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Wagner is known for his scoring ability, but in a game where Paolo Banchero and Jalen Suggs carried the offense, Wagner made his presence felt as a distributor, with his eight assists being his highest output since Dec. 26. Wagner should remain a capable presence on the offensive side of the ball for the Magic, as he's averaged 17.3 points per game through the first three contests of this first-round series.

Franz Wagner : Nears double-double Thursday
Wagner provided 16 points (6-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and eight assists across 30 minutes during Thursday's 121-83 victory over the Cavaliers in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Wagner is known for his scoring ability, but in a game where Paolo Banchero and Jalen Suggs carried the offense, Wagner made his presence felt as a distributor, with his eight assists being his highest output since Dec. 26. Wagner should remain a capable presence on the offensive side of the ball for the Magic, as he's averaged 17.3 points per game through the first three contests of this first-round series.
Paolo Banchero : Records double-double in Game 3 win
Banchero closed with 31 points (13-26 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 14 rebounds, five assists and one steal over 29 minutes during Thursday's 121-83 victory over the Cavaliers in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. There's no question that Banchero is the engine that keeps the Magic going on offense, and the star forward made his presence felt on both ends of the court Thursday, leading the Magic in both points and rebounds en route to a blowout win. Banchero has surpassed the 20-point mark in his three appearances in the series, averaging 25.3 points per game while shooting 49.2 percent from the field and 35.0 percent from three-point range.
Jalen Suggs : Nearly perfect in Game 3 victory
Suggs provided 24 points (9-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals over 28 minutes during Thursday's 121-83 victory over the Cavaliers in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Paolo Banchero led the way for the Magic with an impressive double-double, but Suggs' outing can't be overlooked, as he missed just two shots from the field while also making his presence felt on both ends of the court. The Magic need Suggs to be at his best if they want to have a shot at turning things around in the series, and this was certainly a step in the right direction after he scored a combined 22 points while going 6-for-21 from the field in the first two games of this series.
Jonathan Isaac : Won’t start Game 3
Isaac is not in the starting lineup to face the Cavaliers on Thursday, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports. Isaac started the first two games of the series, where he averaged 6.5 points and 4.5 rebounds across 24.5 minutes per contest, but he'll head back to the bench here. Wendell Carter will get the nod in the frontcourt alongside Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner.
Wendell Carter : Starting in Game 3
Carter is in the starting lineup to face the Cavaliers on Thursday, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports. Carter was the starting center for the majority of the regular season, and he will slot back into that role as the Magic attempt to shake things up ahead of a pivotal Game 3 at home. Carter has averaged 10.5 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game in a starting role this season.
Jalen Suggs : Won’t face limitations in Game 3
Suggs won't face a minutes limit during Thursday's Game 3 against the Cavaliers, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports. Suggs suffered a left knee sprain during Monday's Game 2 loss, but he practiced fully Wednesday and did so again Thursday morning. He's averaged 11.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 4.5 assists in 31.0 minutes per game over the first two matchups in the series.
Jalen Suggs : Good to go for Game 3
Suggs (knee) isn't listed on Orlando's injury report for Thursday's Game 3 against the Cavaliers. Suggs suffered a left knee sprain during Monday's Game 2 loss, but he returned in the second half and said he was fine following the contest. He was also able to practice Wednesday. The defensive-minded guard has totaled 22 points, 10 rebounds, nine assists, three steals and a block through the first two games of the opening-round series.
Jalen Suggs : Goes through practice
Suggs (knee) was able to practice Wednesday, Dan Savage of the Magic's official site reports. Coach Jamahl Mosley said that Suggs is feeling better, and previous reports have indicated that the guard is expected to play in Game 3 Thursday against the Cavaliers. Fantasy managers can expect more clarity when Orlando releases their official injury report Wednesday evening.
