Nikola Vucevic (rest) sitting out for Magic on Wednesday in second half of back-to-back set
Orlando Magic forward/center Nikola Vucevic (rest) will not play against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday.
The Magic want to give Vucevic a breather on the second leg of a back-to-back set. In related news, only half a game separates these two teams in the battle for ping pong balls. Evan Fournier (knee), Terrence Ross (knee), Jonathon Simmons (wrist), and Jonathan Isaac (ankle) are all out for Orlando. Khem Birch figures could be the primary beneficiary and Bismack Biyombo should also see a boost.
Vucevic is averaging 37.2 FanDuel points per game this season, with 16.9 points, 9.3 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.0 steals, 1.1 blocks, and 1.2 3-pointers.
