Michael Carter-Williams (foot) doubtful for Magic in Game 1
Orlando Magic point guard Michael Carter-Williams (strained left foot tendon) is doubtful for Game 1 versus the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday.
What It Means:
Carter-Williams is headed for a sixth consecutive absence. He has a chance to return at some point in the series. Markelle Fultz will remain the team's starting point guard in the playoffs with D.J. Augustin backing him up. Terrence Ross could see a boost off the bench with Carter-Williams unavailable.
Per FanDuel Sportsbook, the Magic are 12.0-point underdogs on Tuesday.
